Oysters

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the serving tray

Fill a large serving platter with crushed ice to create a bed for the oysters.

2

Clean the oysters

Rinse the oysters under cold running water to remove any dirt and debris. Use a brush if necessary.

3

Shuck the oysters

Using an oyster knife, carefully open each oyster by inserting the knife into the hinge and twisting it to pry open the shell. Remove the top shell and loosen the oyster from the bottom shell.

4

Arrange the oysters

Place each shucked oyster on the bed of ice on the serving platter. Make sure they are stable and not tipping over.

5

Add garnishes

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