Oysters
Method
Preparation
- 1
Clean the Oysters
Rinse the fresh oysters under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris. Use a stiff brush to scrub the shells gently.
- 2
Prepare the Serving Platter
Spread a layer of rock salt on a serving platter to create a stable base for the oysters. This will help keep them from tipping over.
- 3
Shuck the Oysters
Using an oyster knife, carefully insert the knife into the hinge of each oyster and twist to open the shell. Remove the top shell and carefully slide the oyster out of the bottom shell, keeping the oyster and its juices intact.
- 4
Arrange the Oysters
Place the shucked oysters on the prepared serving platter, over the rock salt to stabilize them.
