This is from Trader Vic's restaurants. I first had this back in the 70's. Don't leave out the A-1 (it makes a difference) and don't sweeten the whipped cream :)
Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) jar oysters, raw (small)
1/2 lb baby spinach, chopped
1 quart milk
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon a-1 steak sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
1 dash worcestershire sauce (to taste)
1 dash tabasco sauce (to taste)
1/2 cup whipping cream, whipped
Directions:
1. Preheat broiler unit of oven.
2. Puree oysters and their juice, and spinach in a blender.
3. Heat milk in a large saucepan and add puree, butter and A-1 sauce.
4. Bring to simmering point. DO NOT BOIL!
5. Mix cornstarch with water and add to soup to thicken.
6. Season with salt, pepper, worcestershire and tabasco.
7. Ladle into 4 oven-proof bowls and garnish each with whipped cream.
8. Put bowls under broiler until cream is browned.
9. Serve.
