Oysters and Accompaniments

Method

Preparation and Serving

1

Prepare the Oysters

Carefully shuck the Kumamoto oysters, placing them on a serving platter with the cupped side down to retain their juices.

2

Make the Shallot Vinegar

In a small bowl, mix the finely minced shallots and red wine vinegar. Let it sit for at least 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

3

Garnish the Oysters

Drizzle the shallot vinegar mixture over the oysters. Sprinkle with sea salt, black pepper, and fresh parsley.

4

Serve

Serve the oysters chilled with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
