Oysters in a Loaf. Take a loaf that has been baked in a tm mold, such as the bakers sell; cut oflf the top crust and lay it aside, remove most of the inside crumb, then cut the edge mto ornamental notches or saw tooth fashion all around. Spread a little soft butter inside with the back of a spoon and set the loaf in the oven to toast. The top generally gets browned enough by the time the butter inside is hot. IVlake an oyster stew in the usual way but dredge in a few fine bread crumbs
