Oysters

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Shucking the Oysters

    Carefully shuck the Wawenoc oysters using an oyster knife. Hold the oyster in a towel and insert the knife into the hinge of the shell, twisting to pry it open. Remove the top shell and gently slide the knife under the oyster to detach it from the bottom shell, leaving it in place.

  2. 2

    Serving the Oysters

    Arrange the freshly shucked oysters on a serving platter filled with crushed ice. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the oysters and serve with hot sauce, cocktail sauce, and parsley for garnish.
