Oysters
Method
Preparation
Step 1: Clean the Oysters
Rinse the fresh oysters under cold running water. Use a brush to scrub the shells gently to remove any dirt or debris.
Step 2: Shuck the Oysters
Carefully shuck the oysters using an oyster knife. Hold the oyster with a towel, insert the knife into the hinge of the shell, and twist to open. Remove the top shell and place the oyster on a serving plate.
Step 3: Prepare the Garnish
Finely chop the shallots and set aside. Cut the lemon into wedges for serving.
Serving
Step 1: Assemble the Dish
Place the shucked oysters on a bed of crushed ice on a serving platter.
Step 2: Add Toppings
Top each oyster with a small amount of chopped shallots, a dash of hot sauce, and a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper.
Step 3: Serve
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the oysters.
