Oysters
Method
Preparation
- 1
Clean the Oysters
Rinse the fresh oysters under cold running water to remove any sand or debris. Use a brush to scrub the shells gently.
- 2
Prepare the Serving Dish
Spread the coarse sea salt evenly on a serving platter to create a bed for the oysters. This will keep them stable and prevent them from tipping over.
- 3
Shuck the Oysters
Using an oyster knife, carefully insert the blade into the hinge of each oyster and twist to open. Slide the knife under the oyster meat to detach it from the shell. Be cautious of the sharp edges.
- 4
Arrange the Oysters
Place the opened oysters on the bed of sea salt on the serving platter. Ensure that the oyster is sitting flat to retain its juices.
