Oysters

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the XO Mignonette

    In a small bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, finely chopped shallots, Ontario XO sauce, freshly cracked black pepper, and salt. Mix well and let it sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Oysters

    Carefully shuck the fresh oysters, ensuring to keep them on the half shell. Place them on a platter filled with crushed ice to keep them cold.

Serving

  1. 3

    Serve

    Arrange the shucked oysters on the platter and serve with the prepared XO mignonette on the side for drizzling or dipping.
