Oysters

Method

Preparation

1

Shucking the Oysters

Using an oyster knife, carefully shuck the oysters by sliding the knife into the hinge and twisting to open. Detach the oyster from the shell while keeping it in its liquid.

2

Arranging the Oysters

Place crushed ice in a serving platter. Arrange the shucked oysters on the half shell on top of the crushed ice to keep them chilled.

3

Serving

Serve the oysters with lemon wedges, mignonette sauce, and Tabasco sauce on the side for drizzling.
