Didn't realize it was that simple. As long as you do it right and don't mess up the roux. A restaurant could easily make a big jug of the topping and keep cycling in fresh oysters. Could probably charge 30-40 bucks as an appetizer.
Gotta love lol the hateful comments eh? Good grief people say anything when they are anonymous. Anyway, I like the approach. Will try it. It’s not the traditional perhaps but who says one size has to fit all…?! Thx for the vid
So, if you ordered a ham and cheese sandwich and I served you peanut butter and jelly, that would be ok, too? Oysters Rockefeller is an oyster on tbe half shell broiled with a compound butter that includes butter, watercress, celery, green onion, parsley, tarragon, bread crumbs, salt and pepper and Pernod. There's no roux, bacon or other random ingredients. People just put random shit on an oyster and call it oysters Rockefeller, and people who know what the dish is supposed to be aren't supposed to say anything, huh? If you go tona deli and order a Reuben sandwich, and get served smoked turkey on sourdough, don't complain because who says it has to rye bread, sauerkraut, pastrami, Swissand Russian dressing? Maybe I make mine with sourdough, turkey, cheese whiz and kimchi.
This is NOT oysters Rockefeller. This is NOT EVEN CLOSE to oysters Rockefeller. There's no roux, spinach nor bacon in oysters Rockefeller. This is lazy. This is a chef cooking by urban legend without even remotely understanding what he's trying to copy. This is NOT a "take" or "version". A "take" or "version" has to have something in common with the original beyond oysters.
Although I agree with you, the original recipe is still a secret so you don't really know. I learned in the 80's and it was LOT'S of spinach, fennel, green onion and Pernod. Broil the oysters first, top with spinach mixture and then bechamel and then toast in a broiler to brown the bechamel. When people put bacon in it they are mixing it up with clams casino. And yes I know the rumor is the original was made with watercress, not spinach. I will always make it with spinach and fennel.
