I have not tried this yet but I suspect that the reason the reviev of January 28/ 2003 was unfavorable is that the milk was not included in the flour mixture. I hope I was of some help.

Maybe I did something wrong, but I thought these turned out a little 'gummy'.

I tried this recipe for dinner tonight, the oysters were absolutely delicious! The breading was perfect, enough to be crispy but not too much to take away from the flavor of the oysters. Thank you!
