Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Arrange oysters on a baking sheet, using crumpled foil or rock salt to keep them steady. A large madeleine pan covered in foil is an excellent alternative. Measure the oyster juices and, if needed, add enough clam juice or fish stock to make ½ cup. Heat broiler.

  2. Step 2

    In a saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add shallots and sauté until soft. Whisk in flour, cook briefly and add oyster juice and lemon juice, whisking until blended. Whisk in miso, then gradually whisk in cream. Cook 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Mix in crumbs.

  3. Step 3

    Spoon mixture on oysters, covering them completely. Broil 5 minutes until glazed and bubbling. Serve.
