Oysters
Lime Dressing
Method
Preparing the Oysters
Clean the Oysters
Rinse the fresh oysters under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris. Use a brush if necessary to scrub the shells.
Open the Oysters
Using an oyster knife, carefully insert the knife into the hinge of the oyster shell. Twist the knife to pop the shell open, and slide the knife along the inside to detach the oyster from the shell. Be cautious of the sharp edges.
Arrange on Ice
Place a layer of ice in a serving dish or platter. Arrange the opened oysters on top of the ice to keep them chilled.
Preparing the Lime Dressing
Cut the Limes
Cut the limes in half. You should have four halves to serve with the oysters.
Season with Sea Salt
Sprinkle a small pinch of sea salt over the opened oysters before serving. This enhances the flavor.
