Oyster or Clam Fritters

Instructions

Chop twenty-five clams or oysters fine, and mix them with a batter made as follows:

Batter

• 1 pint of flour
• 1 heaping teaspoonful of baking-powder
• 1/2 teaspoonful of salt
• 1 large cup of milk
• 2 eggs well beaten

Instructions

Sift baking-powder and salt into flour. Stir eggs and milk together; add the flour slowly; and, last, the clams or oysters. Drop by spoonfuls into boiling lard. Fry to a golden brown, and serve at once; or they may be fried like pancakes in a little hot fat. Whole clams or oysters may be used instead of chopped ones, and fried singly.
