Description
Take great care when shucking an oyster, as the knife can slip all too easily. For safety’s sake, wrap your knife-free hand in a thick towel to protect it.
Method
Step 1 of 3
To prepare the oysters, discard any that have opened or do not close tightly straight away, when tapped on the work surface. Use an oyster knife, and hold the oysters over a bowl as you open them. Carefully shuck the oysters one by one, catching any liquid in the bowl and transferring the opened oysters in their shells and their liquid to the fridge as you go.
Step 2 of 3
Arrange the oysters on an oyster plate with ice, or pack four serving dishes with lots of crushed ice and place the oysters on top.
Step 3 of 3
Mix the vinegar and shallots together and put into a small dish. Place in the centre of the oysters - or the middle of the table - and serve.
