Oyster Bisque.
Take 3 cups of oysters or clam juice, a very little finely chopped celery, salt and pepper to taste. Let boil a few minutes, then thicken with a teaspoonful of flour mixed in a little cold water. Before serving have the beaten yelks of 2 eggs whipped into a cup of cream, add this to the juice and keep stirring for full two minutes. Then stir into cups and serve immediately.
