Directions
Drain the oysters and soak them in cold water briefly, then drain again.
Wipe each oyster with a soft linen cloth.

Place a slice of bacon in your palm, add an oyster, and fold the bacon around it.
Secure the bacon and oyster with a toothpick.
Heat a skillet and brown the wrapped oysters on both sides.
Serve hot.
