temperature making a light roux (light brown). Add celery, onion, and bell

(You should have 2 cups liquid so add water if you do not have that much
oyster liquid.) Reduce heat to very low. Crumble crackers very fine and add
to oyster mixture along with slightly beaten egg. Remove from heat; add
parsley and chopped eggs. Season to taste. Place in individual oysters
shells or in a casserole dish. Top with bread crumbs and bakc in a 400
