Everything You Need to Know About Oysters

As an Oyster Mesh Supplier, share with you.

Q: What should I pay attention to when buying oysters?

A: Only buy shelled oysters, because shelled oysters are dead.

A: Look for shells that are tightly closed and have no odor. They should be deep cup-shaped and uniform in shape. Buy oysters from certified waters, let your fishmonger show you the shellfish label, and buy only fresh oysters.

Q: Is there a season for oysters? Is it true that fresh oysters should only be eaten within a few months with "r" in the name?

A: This no longer applies. The farming method has changed, and the oysters get better every month.

A: Many oysters have a spawning season. During this time, they are not pleasant to eat, but they are also harmless. There is also a kind of oyster called triploid, which has an extra chromosome. It never lays eggs and is in season all year round. The "r" month is mostly a fairy tale now, because there are many different oyster species in the United States and Canada. When one oyster lays eggs, there are many others that do not lay eggs.

Q: How long in advance do you recommend buying oysters for consumption at home?

A: I suggest buying oysters on the same day or the day before. The shelf life of East Coast oysters is up to two weeks, while the shelf life of West Coast oysters is up to one week, but I really don’t recommend buying that long in advance.

A: When buying oysters, a good rule of thumb is to buy oysters close to your area. Oysters from the surrounding area have the shortest time to produce water.

Q: What is the best way to store oysters after taking them home?

A: It's best to put the oysters in a pan, cover it with a wet towel, and put it in the refrigerator.

A: When they come, they usually put them in a bag. Do not store in ice-if it is too cold, the oysters will die.

Q: What is the best way to eat raw oysters?

A: I put the oyster on the half shell, put it on crushed ice on a rimmed plate, and garnished with seaweed and lemon.

A: I will use some rock salt and fresh seaweed to serve them. You can ask the fishmonger for seaweed when buying oysters.

Q: Any suggestions for cooking oysters at home?

A: Grilling oysters is simple and fun. They can be opened an hour in advance, and then just before serving, roast them on the half shell with any flavored butter, or drizzle with spicy salsa. You can also grill closed oysters on a charcoal or gas grill until they burst, and then eat with a little melted butter next to them. No matter which method you choose to cook oysters, they are an interesting food.

A: Grilled oysters, similar to clam casinos, are the easiest to prepare at home.

Q: What is the most popular way to eat oysters in your restaurant?

A: For oysters, the most popular ingredient is cocktail sauce. For cooked oysters, the most popular preparations are our Rockefeller oysters and fried oysters.

A: Very simple: On the half shell, add a little mignonette or cocktail sauce.

Q: Which beverages do you recommend with oysters? What is the perfect wine? beer?

A: Anything cold! Maybe it's a light beer or a good Sancerre.

A: I like champagne, Chablis or Sauvignon Blanc. As for beer, I like stout.

Q: What is the best way to turn oyster phobia into an oyster lover?

A: Let them try fried or grilled oysters, and then try raw mild oysters.

A: I recommend the smallest oyster possible. It is small and thin, and is loved by people. I would also recommend a little Mignonette for those who eat oysters for the first time.
