Oyster Loaf - La Mediatrice
Delicate French Loaves of Bread
2 Dozen Oyster to a Loaf
1 Tablespoon of Melted Butter
This is called the "famous peacemaker" in New Orleans. Every husband who
is detained down town, laughingly carried home an oyster loaf, or
Mediatrice, to make "peace" with his anxiously waiting wife. Right
justly is the Oyster Loaf called the "Peace-maker," for, well made, it
is enough to bring the smiles to the face of the most disheartened wife.
Take delicate French loaves of bread and cup off, lengthwise, the upper
portion. Dip the crumbs out of the center of each piece, leaving the
sides and bottom like a square box. Brush each corner of the box and the
bottom with melted butter, and place in a quick oven to brown. Fill with
broiled or creamed oysters. Cover with each other and serve.
