My thoughts:
It is prime number release oyster season hither inwards add-on to I've been scoring pints of local oysters for under $10. The Hangtown shaver is i of those weird dishes that had to withdraw keep been invented past times an American. Who else would intend of adding fried oysters to scrambled eggs? There are a lot of variations inwards add-on to stories nigh the Hangtown shaver but basically, it was an expensive breakfast that originated amongst miners during the California Gold Rush. Think: oysters were plentiful but non upwards inward the mountains. It is solitary relatively latterly that oysters tin final safely purchased yr round off inwards add-on to together with thence intend nigh having to build them cool inwards add-on to final inward the 1880s inwards add-on to hauling them upwards a mountain! Only a successful prospector would intend of such a meal! Other expensive ingredients would withdraw keep been bacon inwards add-on to eggs inwards add-on to together with thence why non throw them all together inward a shape of loose omelette?It is a niggling trouble intensive to build a Hangtown fry inwards add-on to it is tricky to learn inward for a crowd inwards add-on to withdraw keep it railroad develop for everyone to swallow instantly inwards add-on to together with thence I sentiment turning it into a frittata was a clever move. It genuinely solitary took nigh 20 minutes of prep time--I fried the bacon inwards add-on to the oysters at the same 4th dimension inwards add-on to since it is a one-step breading process, I but dredged inwards add-on to dropped them inward the hot stone oil i later on another. Oysters solitary withdraw keep nigh v minutes to fry, fifty-fifty if they are big "select" size oysters. I was worried nigh the texture but the oysters held upwards perfectly inwards add-on to the breading was even thence pretty crisp inwards add-on to provided that "fried" sense of savor that is genuinely needed to build this a Hangtown Fry-ttata vs a generic oyster frittata. It helps to piece of business skillful bacon too, I similar True Story bacon for dishes similar this because it is thick inwards add-on to has a skillful porky, smoky season inwards add-on to isn't likewise salty but whatever thick cutting bacon would work.
