REMOULADE SAUCE:
32 ounces shucked oysters
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon milk
1 tablespoon water
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
kosher salt
vegetable oil, for frying
4 (6-inch) hoagie loaves
4 leaves romaine lettuce
1 to 2 lemons
1 1/4 cups mayonnaise
1/4 cup stone-ground mustard
1 clove garlic clove, smashed
1 tablespoon pickle juice
1 tablespoon capers
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon hot paprika
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce

Steps:

Drain the oysters and place in a small bowl. Cover with 1 cup milk and let soak for 15 minutes. In a medium bowl, whisk together remaining milk, water, cayenne and eggs. Place the flour, cornmeal, black pepper, and salt into a brown paper bag, close and shake to mix. In a large heavy-bottomed pot, pour enough oil to fill the pan halfway. Heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 360°F. Drain the oysters from the milk. In batches dip oysters in the egg mixture then drop in the paper bag. Close and shake. Remove to a plate and repeat with the rest of the oysters. When oil is at 360°F, fry oysters in batches. Do not overcrowd. Cook turning once until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove to a paper towel. Repeat with remaining oysters. To serve, cut sandwich loaves in half horizontally. Slather a generous amount of Spicy Remoulade Sauce on the inside. Place a lettuce leaf inside and fill generously with oysters. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over oysters just before serving. REMOULADE SAUCE: Place all ingredients into a food processor and blend until smooth. Chill until ready to serve.
