INGREDIENTS

6 tablespoons butter ; divided
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups yellow onion ; chopped
1 quart milk ; warm
4 dozen oysters ; freshly shucked, drained with oyster liquor reserved
3 tablespoons fresh parsley ; chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a large heavy-bottomed pot set over medium heat. Add flour and cook, stirring slowly and constantly, for about 3 minutes. Add onions and cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 to 4 minutes. Combine milk with reserved oyster liquor and add slowly to roux mixture, stirring constantly. The mixture will thicken slightly. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes. Add oysters, parsley, remaining 3 tablespoons of butter, salt and pepper, and simmer until edges of oysters curl.
