What is the Best way to cook Oysters
For grilled oysters, we recommend shucking them and removing them entirely from the shell. Lather them in butter and grill them at medium to high heat for a couple of minutes, until the butter starts to caramelize, at which point they’re ready to eat with some added lemon, lime or hot sauce.
What is the tastiest way to eat Oysters
It’s a common misconception that you should swallow an oyster whole. Chewing an oyster is the best way to enjoy the full flavor profile.
Garlic Oysters – A Restaurant Classic
Ingredients
- 12 Oysters fresh oysters opened before use
- 2 tablespoon garlic fine chop
- 4 ounces butter
- 1 teaspoon Italian Parsley fine chop
- ¼ teaspoon granulated onion
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Romano cheese grated
Instructions
- In a heavy saucepan, place butter and garlic and simmer over low heat for 7-10 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and add all the seasonings except the Romano cheese.
- Place garlic butter into a small bowl and refrigerate until butter is semi-solid, mixing occasionally to keep the garlic well-blended throughout the mixture.
- Clean the oysters under running cold water to remove all of the dirt. Discard any open oysters as they are dead and not safe to eat. Fresh Live Oysters 20 in Crate
Find the shortest thick bladed screwdriver you have and wash it thoroughly.
Lay the oyster flat in your hand and hold it in place. Insert the tip of the screwdriver into the “hinge” at the back of the oyster and rotate the handle to pry open the oyster.At this point, you’ll need a pairing knife to cut the muscle away from the shell by sliding the knife horizontally along the inside top of the shell.Run the knife under and over to but release the oyster from the shell. Then turn the oyster over in the shell.
***Do Not Dump Out the Liquid in the Oyster!!
- Place the opened oysters on a cutting board or baking sheet until they’re all open and ready to fill with the garlic butter.
- Spoon a small amount of the garlic butter over each oyster on a half shell, then sprinkle with Romano cheese. Fresh Live Oysters 20 in Crate
- Place Oysters on a baking sheet, then into a preheated 400-degree oven for 15-20 minutes or under the broiler for 3-5 minutes.
- Place any of the butter that has drained from the oysters back over them before serving.
- Serve and enjoy!
Live oysters are a real delicacy! Often enjoyed raw, oysters have a sea-salty flavour with a sweet, creamy finish.
They are also great cooked too and work well with robust, hearty flavours such as beef and lamb. Oysters are also highly nutritious, with plenty of Omega 3 and vitamin D and, you may have also heard, they’re an aphrodisiac too!
Our live oysters are sold individually so you get exactly the right amount for your next dinner party or event.
Richard Haward’s oysters supply some of the finest in the world. For eight generations we have been cultivating our Mersea oysters in the River Blackwater and purifying them with that same sea water, giving them their unique and remarkable flavour.
