Directions
Hangtown Fry,Legend has it that a 49’er hit a glory hole, an incredibly rich pocket of gold nuggets. He walked into the El Dorado Hotel restaurant in Hangtown, now Placerville California, and asked the waiter what was the most expensive item on the menu. The waiter answered that would be one of three things, oysters, which were tinned and shipped all the way from Boston, Bacon, which was scarce, and Eggs, which were also scarce. The prospector answered, fix them all on one plate and bring it to him. So was born the ‘Hangtown Fry’. If you’ve never tried this delight, please do so. Elegance can be complicated but it can also be simple. In this case it’s simple.,Excellent brunch item. Didn’t have sourdough, but toast with cream cheese and “everything but the bagel” seasoning on it is also a good accompaniment. Even tho they grow oysters here in SC, I never saw it as a menu item. Thanks for this recipe!,This is the tastiest Hangtown Fry I’ve ever made. My husband and I both like them, and often eat them when we can find them in restaurants. I’ve made them before a few times, but this recipe is the best
