OYSTER STUFFING CAKES
When you get your hands on ice-cold oysters straight from the Chesapeake Bay, it would be foolish to do anything beyond shuck and slurp. But in the 19th century, oysters were so plentiful in eastern Virginia and Maryland that they burrowed their way into the region's cooking traditions. Most were smoked and salted, roasted over fire, dropped into chowders and stews and used in stuffings. The chef Peter Woods at Merroir in Topping, Va., serves this crisp, savory treat in fall and winter as an appetizer, or as a main course with a big winter salad of bitter greens, pears or dried fruit and toasted nuts.Try to buy the oysters for this recipe at a fish store with high turnover and have the counterman shuck them for you; if you can't, even packaged shucked oysters will do fine. They are chopped up small in this recipe so they melt into the bread and herbs, and their briny liquor binds the mixture. You taste umami and butter and salt, but nothing screams "Oyster!"

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine oysters and their liquor, bread and cheese. Set aside.
- In a heavy skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add bacon and let cook 3 to 5 minutes, until fat has rendered and bacon is cooked through but not crisp.
- Add celery and onion, stir to coat, then add stock and bring to a simmer. Let simmer until vegetables have softened, 10 minutes. Add herbs and coriander, mix well and turn off heat.
- Add vegetable mixture to bread mixture in bowl. Toss well, season to taste with salt and pepper, then refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours, or overnight.
- When ready to cook, form chilled mixture into 3 1/2-ounce patties, about the size of a clementine. Let patties come to cool room temperature. Heat a film of oil in a skillet and, working in batches, pan-fry patties, turning once, until browned on both sides and hot all the way through. Serve hot, with bacon scallion cream sauce if desired.

BEST OF THE BAY RECIPES...OYSTER FRITTERS
When the leaves begin to turn their bright fall colors and the brisk air ushers in autumn, the Oyster season in the Chesapeake Bay begins. Oysters are prepared every way imaginable, fried, roasted, grilled, steamed or simply eaten raw with a dash of hot sauce or lemon. Oysters may be fried either individually or using several bound together in batter, known as a fritter- this is a typical (and delicious) recipe for oyster fritters.

- Place all ingredients for the meat in a bowl and stir to combine. You can do a taste test by microwaving or boil a small amount of the meat so you can taste and adjust the seasoning. Cover and let it marinate for about 20 minutes while you prepare other things
- Preheat about 2 inches deep of oil. When you put a skewer in, there should be bubbles around it. Preheat the soup ladle you are going to use to cook the oyster cake. Mine has a capacity of about 50 ml. Let it heat up for about 1 minute
- Prepare the batter just when you are ready to cook the oyster cake. Don't prepare ahead and let the batter sits around. Put all the ingredients, except for water, in a mixing bowl. Whisk to combine these dry ingredients. Gradually dd the water and whisk to combine until you get a batter that is about medium thick but still a pourable consistency. Don't overstir either or the fried products may turn gummy and greasy. Add water as needed if the batter is too thick
- When the ladle is done preheating, scoop about 2 Tbsp of batter on the ladle, top with about 1 Tbsp of meat, one oyster, 2-3 chunks of shrimp, chives and then cover with another 2 Tbsp of batter. Sprinkle with some peanuts and some ikan bilis on top
