MMMMM--------------------------SPINACH-------------------------------
2 tb Unsalted butter
1 Shallot; fine chopped
1 1/2 lb Fresh chopped spinach
1/2 ts Ground black pepper
MMMMM------------------------WHITE SAUCE-----------------------------
3 tb Butter
4 tb Flour
1/2 ts Salt
1 c Half & Half
MMMMM----------------ROQUEFORT+OYSTER CREAM SAUCE---------------------
1 c Heavy whipping cream
8 oz Crumbled Roquefort Cheese
24 Raw oysters
FOR THE SPINACH MIXTURE: Warm a sautee pan over medium
heat with the butter. Add all ingredients together and
cook until spinach is soft and wilted. Set mixture aside
in a strainer to let liquids drain.
FOR THE WHITE SAUCE: Melt the butter over medium heat
and add the flour. Stir together and cook for about 2
minutes to make a blonde roux. Slowly add the Half and
Half a little at a time. Stir the mixture until it
begins to softly bubble and is smooth and thick.
Mix the drained spinach mixture into the white sauce.
Set aside until needed. This mixture will be what you
put on the bottom of the dish to top with the oysters
and Roquefort cheese mixture in the next step.
FOR THE ROQUEFORT AND OYSTER CREAM SAUCE Warm a saute
pan over medium heat. Add the whipping cream and let it
warm but not boil. Add the Roquefort cheese and stir to
melt in and incorporate.
Once the mixture is warm and creamy add all of the
oysters and stir to cover the oysters with the sauce.
Cook the oysters until warm, about 2 minutes.
ASSEMBLY Cover the bottom of casserole dish large enough
to hold 24 oysters with the creamed spinach as a base
layer.
Cover the base layer with the Roquefort and Oyster Cream
Sauce.
Top the dish with 3 ounces of crumbled Roquefort Cheese.
Place dish under a broiler until all cheese is melted
and the dish is bubbling warm.
