Oysters and Accompaniments

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mignonette

    Finely chop the shallot and combine it in a small bowl with the pink peppercorns, red wine vinegar, and a pinch of salt. Mix well and let it sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Oysters

    If not already shucked, carefully open the oysters using an oyster knife. Discard the top shell and place the oysters on a serving platter with the bottom shell facing up.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Cut the lemon into wedges. Serve the oysters chilled with the lemon wedges and the pink peppercorn mignonette on the side. Enjoy!
