Method

For the toasts, preheat the oven to 350°F.

Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet and drizzle with oil and lemon juice.

Sprinkle with tarragon and season with salt and pepper.

Bake until toasts begin to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Set aside.

For the soup, heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.

Add shallot and cook, stirring frequently, for 3 minutes or until aromatic and translucent.

Add pancetta and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.

Add leeks, mushrooms, potato, tarragon, salt and pepper and cook until vegetables are starting to brown lightly, about 5 minutes.

Stir in broth, chile flakes, oysters and 1/4 cup of their reserved liquor, and 1 1/2 cups water.

Cover and cook until the oysters are cooked through and the soup is flavorful, about 15 minutes.

Stir in parsley and simmer until potato and mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes longer.

Ladle soup into bowls, garnish with toasts and serve immediately.
