Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Shuck the Oysters

    Using a shucking knife, carefully open the oysters by inserting the knife into the hinge and twisting. Remove the top shell and gently detach the oyster from the bottom shell, leaving it in place.

  2. 2

    Prepare Accompaniments

    Arrange lemon wedges, cocktail sauce, shallots, and hot sauce in small bowls on a serving platter.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Place the freshly shucked oysters on a platter and serve immediately with the accompaniments.
