Oysters

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Sorbet

In a saucepan, combine water and sugar. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat and add sorrel leaves, diced pear, lemon juice, and salt. Let it cool.

2

Blend and Freeze

Once cooled, blend the mixture until smooth. Pour into a shallow dish and freeze for at least 4 hours or until solid. Scrape with a fork to create a fluffy sorbet texture before serving.

3

Prepare the Oysters

Shuck the Harker’s Island oysters, placing them on a bed of crushed ice on a serving platter.

4

Serve

Serve the oysters on the half shell with a scoop of the sorrel and pear mignonette sorbet on top of each oyster.
