The World's Best Bluff Oyster Recipe

Chef: Laurel Watson as heard on Afternoons Saturday 3 March 2007

Tags: starter, oysters

Method

To open the oysters, wrap one hand in a tea towel and hold an oyster in it with the flat shell uppermost. Push the point of an oyster knife into the hinge, located at the narrowest point, and wiggle the knife back and forth until the hinge breaks and you can slide the knife between the 2 shells. Twist the point of the knife upwards to lever up the top shell, cut through the ligament and lift off the top shell. Release the oyster from the bottom shell and remove it, picking out any little bits of shell. Eat immediately.
