BEST OF THE BAY RECIPES...OYSTER FRITTERS
When the leaves begin to turn their bright fall colors and the brisk air ushers in autumn, the Oyster season in the Chesapeake Bay begins. Oysters are prepared every way imaginable, fried, roasted, grilled, steamed or simply eaten raw with a dash of hot sauce or lemon. Oysters may be fried either individually or using several bound together in batter, known as a fritter- this is a typical (and delicious) recipe for oyster fritters.

Steps:
- Using a whisk, beat the eggs in a small bowl. Add the milk and whisk until a bit frothy. In a second, larger bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. Add in the egg mixture and mix until you have a smooth batter. Fold in the oysters and their liquor until they are evenly coated.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet until very hot. Ladle out 3 or 4 oysters and fry until golden brown on both sides, about 4 - 6 minutes. Remove and drain. Serve with tartar sauce or lemon slices and enjoy the first oyster harvest of the fall.

- 3. Heat half of the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add half of the crab cakes and cook, carefully turning once, until golden brown and heated through, about 6 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining oil and crab cakes.
- 4. Once the stovetop is cool, wipe up any oil splatters with Clorox® Disinfecting Wipes*.
- *Use as directed. For surfaces that may come in contact with food, a potable water rinse is required.
OYSTER STUFFING CAKES
When you get your hands on ice-cold oysters straight from the Chesapeake Bay, it would be foolish to do anything beyond shuck and slurp. But in the 19th century, oysters were so plentiful in eastern Virginia and Maryland that they burrowed their way into the region's cooking traditions. Most were smoked and salted, roasted over fire, dropped into chowders and stews and used in stuffings. The chef Peter Woods at Merroir in Topping, Va., serves this crisp, savory treat in fall and winter as an appetizer, or as a main course with a big winter salad of bitter greens, pears or dried fruit and toasted nuts.Try to buy the oysters for this recipe at a fish store with high turnover and have the counterman shuck them for you; if you can't, even packaged shucked oysters will do fine. They are chopped up small in this recipe so they melt into the bread and herbs, and their briny liquor binds the mixture. You taste umami and butter and salt, but nothing screams "Oyster!"

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine oysters and their liquor, bread and cheese. Set aside.
- In a heavy skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add bacon and let cook 3 to 5 minutes, until fat has rendered and bacon is cooked through but not crisp.
- Add celery and onion, stir to coat, then add stock and bring to a simmer. Let simmer until vegetables have softened, 10 minutes. Add herbs and coriander, mix well and turn off heat.
- Add vegetable mixture to bread mixture in bowl. Toss well, season to taste with salt and pepper, then refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours, or overnight.
- When ready to cook, form chilled mixture into 3 1/2-ounce patties, about the size of a clementine. Let patties come to cool room temperature. Heat a film of oil in a skillet and, working in batches, pan-fry patties, turning once, until browned on both sides and hot all the way through. Serve hot, with bacon scallion cream sauce if desired.

- Grilled Oysters. If you don't have an expert shucking hand, tossing oysters on the grill will make it easier. They won't open as much as mussels or clams do, but the top shell loosens in the heat.

- Crispy Fried Oysters. With a crisp and crunchy cornmeal batter, fried oysters make the perfect seafood snack, salad topper, or po'boy filling. We've also included a recipe for homemade tartar sauce for dipping, but the jarred version works if you don't have time.
