Oysters and Condiments

Method

Preparation and Serving

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mignonette Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, finely chopped shallot, and freshly ground black pepper. Mix well and set aside to allow the flavors to meld.

  2. 2

    Shuck the Oysters

    Carefully shuck the oysters, removing them from their shells while leaving the oyster in the bottom shell. Discard any broken shells.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Place the shucked oysters on a serving platter. Spoon the mignonette sauce over the oysters and serve with Doris hot sauce and lemon wedges on the side.
