Oysters and Accompaniments

Method

Preparation and Serving

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mignonette

    In a small bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, finely chopped shallot, and freshly cracked black pepper. Mix well and let it sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  2. 2

    Shuck the Oysters

    Carefully shuck the fresh oysters using an oyster knife. Place them on a bed of crushed ice to keep them chilled.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Arrange the shucked oysters on a platter. Serve them with lemon wedges and the prepared mignonette on the side.
