Method

Preparation

1

Shucking the Oysters

Carefully shuck the fresh oysters using an oyster knife. Hold the oyster securely in a towel and insert the knife at the hinge. Twist and pry open the shell to expose the meat inside.

2

Arrange on a Platter

Place the shucked oysters on a bed of crushed ice on a serving platter to keep them chilled.

3

Serve with Condiments

Serve the oysters with lemon wedges, cocktail sauce, and hot sauce on the side for dipping.
