Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat broiler. Place crème fraîche in a medium-size bowl and mix in horseradish, ketchup and chives. Season with pepper. Beat egg whites until they hold peaks. Fold into crème fraîche mixture.

  2. Step 2

    Arrange oysters on a baking pan lined with crumpled aluminum foil to hold them steady, or place them in madeleine pans. Spoon about a tablespoon of the crème fraîche mixture on each. Broil about 3 inches from the source of heat, a minute or so, until lightly dappled with brown on top. Arrange on a platter or on individual plates and serve.
