Choose 12 fresh oysters from a reliable source, preferably from the Puget Sound region for optimal flavor.

Shucking the Oysters
Using an oyster knife, carefully insert the blade into the hinge of each oyster and twist to open. Slide the knife along the shell to cut the muscle attaching the oyster to the shell.
