Directions
Poach oysters in their own liquor for 2 minutes.
Sprinkle sherry over oysters.
Clean the bottom of the deeper oyster shells and set them on a baking tray covered with rock salt.
Sauté chopped celery in butter and place 1 teaspoonful in each shell.
Place a poached oyster on each bed of celery and cover with Bechamel Sauce which has been mixed with a few drops of melted butter over each oyster.
Bake in a hot 400oF oven until golden brown.
Serve with dark bread and butter.
