Oysters and Sauce

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Shucking the Oysters

    Begin by thoroughly cleaning the oysters under cold running water. Using an oyster knife, carefully shuck each oyster, prying open the shell and releasing the oyster from its shell. Place the shucked oysters on a serving platter, ensuring they remain upright to retain their juices.

  2. 2

    Preparing the Cocktail Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine the cocktail sauce with prepared horseradish. Adjust the amount of horseradish to taste, depending on your preference for spiciness.

  3. 3

    Serving

    Serve the shucked oysters chilled on ice with a generous dollop of the spicy cocktail sauce and horseradish mixture on the side for dipping.
