Oysters and Garnish
Method
Preparation
Prepare the Oysters
Carefully shuck the fresh oysters, discarding the top shell and retaining the bottom shell with the oyster inside. Place the shucked oysters on a plate or platter.
Create an Ice Bed
Fill a large serving platter or bowl with ice to create a bed for the oysters. This will keep them chilled.
Arrange the Oysters
Place the shucked oysters on top of the ice bed, ensuring they are stable and not tipping over.
Add Garnishes
Garnish the oysters with lemon wedges, cocktail sauce, hot sauce, and a sprinkle of garnet salt on top. Optionally, add chopped fresh parsley for color.
Serve with Wine
Pour the rose wine into glasses and serve alongside the oysters on the half shell. Enjoy immediately!
