Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Clean the Oysters

    Rinse the oysters under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris. Use a brush if necessary to scrub the shells.

  2. 2

    Shuck the Oysters

    Using an oyster knife, carefully shuck each oyster by inserting the knife into the hinge at the back and twisting until the shell opens. Be cautious not to spill the liquor.

Serving

  1. 3

    Plate the Oysters

    Place the shucked oysters on a serving platter filled with crushed ice to keep them chilled.

  2. 4

    Add the Caviar

    Using a small spoon, place a teaspoon of Osetra caviar on top of each oyster.

  3. 5

    Garnish

    Sprinkle sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper over the caviar. Finely chop the chives and sprinkle them on top. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
