Oysters

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Oysters

Carefully shuck the oysters, ensuring to keep the shell intact and the oyster in its liquor. Place the shucked oysters on a serving platter filled with crushed ice to keep them chilled.

2

Make the Cocktail Sauce

In a small bowl, combine ketchup, horseradish, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce. Mix well and set aside.

3

Make the Jalapeño-Lime Mignonette

In another small bowl, combine finely chopped shallots, diced jalapeño, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Mix well and let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

4

Serve

Serve the oysters chilled on the platter with bowls of cocktail sauce and jalapeño-lime mignonette on the side.
