Sarah Rutledge, writing in The Carolina Housewife (1847), offered several recipes, including one with peanuts and one with benne (sesame seeds). Here is a modern adaptation of the benne-oyster combination.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon benne (sesame seeds)
  • 1 cup oyster liquor, drained from the oysters
  • 1<

Method

On a baking sheet in a preheated 350° oven or in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat, cook the benne until evenly browned, about 10 to 15 minutes
