Oysters are nice with only a squeeze of contemporary lemon. However if you wish to make them just a little fancier, listed here are 3 of my favorite oyster recipes: a basic mignonette sauce, Tetsuya’s well-known oysters with Japanese Dressing, and a Cucumber Lime Granita. All simple!
Oyster camp – in or out?
I really feel like oysters are a kind of meals which can be a bit divisive. You both love them or hate them. Those that hate them assume they’re slimy and costly, and that folks solely eat them as a result of it makes them really feel fancy.
Those that love them adore the briny flavour, the style of the ocean and the way life simply feels good if you’re slurping oysters with a glass of chilled bubbly!
So, on your subsequent feast, neglect fussing round with fiddly elaborate hors d’oeuvres that fills all people up earlier than the mains. Purchase some oysters, make a fast sauce, then move them round for everybody to assist themselves.
In the present day, I’m sharing my 3 favorite oyster sauces – a basic mignonette, Tetsuya’s Japanese Oyster Dressing and a Cucumber Lime Jalapeño Granita.
1. Traditional mignonette for oysters
Simply as we love a squeeze of tangy lemon on our oysters, this piquant vinegar sauce is the proper match with creamy oysters. A wonderful eating basic, you solely want crimson wine vinegar and eschalots (US: shallots). Serve in a bowl and let individuals assist themselves.
2. Tetsuya’s oysters with Japanese Dressing
Based mostly on the oysters served at Tetsuya’s, one in every of Sydney’s most prestigious Japanese eating places, this incorporates a ginger-soy French dressing, then is topped with salmon roe (non-obligatory) and completed with chives. Easy, très fashionable fashionable Asian model oysters!
3. Cucumber jalapeno granita *my decide*
A private favorite, created particularly to match oysters, tremendous simple. The snowy ice with tang from lime, cucumber freshness and a refined kick of spice from jalapeño is sheer perfection with oysters. Additionally screams of summer time! *Make in the present day, serve tomorrow, subsequent week or subsequent month!*
And there you may have it! All 3 recipes are extraordinarily easy and the sauce may be made forward.
Subsequent time you see oysters on my web site, I feel it’ll must be a cooked one! Any requests? Kilpatrick? Mornay? Rockefeller? Po’ boys? So many choices! – Nagi x
