OYSTER STEW CHRISTMAS EVE RECIPE
Oyster Stew has always traditionally been served by my mother and her Hollingsworth family roots from Georgia every Christmas Eve. The colors of red and green are very Christmas-like. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat until it begins to foam.
- Cook and stir the celery, onion, and red bell pepper in the hot butter until soft, about 10 minutes.
- Stir the half-and-half and parsley through the vegetable mixture; season with salt and black pepper.
- Continue cooking until the mixture just begins to boil; add the oysters and any liquid from the can to the stew along with Louisiana-style hot sauce. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until the oysters begin to curl, 10 to 15 minutes more.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the stew to sit 5 minutes before serving.

CHRISTMAS EVE OYSTER STEW
My spiced-up version of our family's tradition. We served this traditional Christmas Eve dish along with clam dip and cranberry- or Russian-spiced tea.

CHRISTMAS EVE OYSTER STEW
This recipe has been passed down the generations in our family. We usually have it every year on Christmas Eve. Since it's so rich we only serve it with ice water to drink and a simple salad. Delicious and very satisfying.

Steps:
- Add milk, butter and oysters with their juice to a double boiler or a large pot that fits inside of another pot. Fill the bottom pot as full of water as you can without it running over.
- Add a little celery salt, salt and pepper and then heat on low. Cook very slowy so the milk won't boil (I start at 1 pm. for dinner at 6 pm). Every now and then stir. After a few hours, do a taste test to adjust seasonings.
- Serve with oyster crackers.
