Oyster Sausages...

Oysters are sometimes regarded as a symbol of misery. Perhaps this is due to the fact that you can acquire hepatitis from eating raw oysters. (A business associate of ours did just that some years ago). So avoid the raw oysters, and perhaps try one of these recipes instead? Once again, no guarantees are offered. But, try to be certain of the source and quality of your oysters. Please verify that they are uncontaminated.

One dozen large oysters, one half pound rump steak, a little seasoning of herbs, pepper and salt. Chop all fine, and roll them into the form of sausages. (Do not eat raw. Cook until well done).
