Mushrooms provide umami flavor, while canned clams are more affordable.

Add butter and let it melt until foamy.

Chop a few onions and add them to the pot; sauté until softened.

Cut andouille sausage into thin slices and add to the pot; cook until heated through.

Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Pour in oyster juice and stir well.

Add oysters to the pot and cook until the edges start to curl, stirring occasionally.

Let the mixture simmer for a minute until the oysters curl up.

Add half and half to the pot and stir to combine; let simmer for a bit.
