 Rolled oyster

Rolled oyster is a baseball-sized seafood dish that is found only in and around Louisville, Kentucky.It consists of three raw oysters dipped in an egg-milk cornmeal batter called "pastinga", rolled in cracker crumbs (hence the name), and deep fried.They were first served by Italian immigrant Phillip Mazzoni and his brothers in the late 19th century as a free giveaway to their saloon patrons with a purchased beer or whiskey.
