HEY!!! i just came back from the south coast of NSW... totally beautiful! anyway, i bought heaps of oysters back, and here's how i shucked them... anyway, it's god damn difficult, but heaps of fun! when you guys come to australia, we'll have a shucking contest! *sorry jen, i know you get turned off by oysters*
Just 10% of the oysters i bought!
An oyster
My lousy knife to open the oyster (to open the shell. it's super duper tight).. it's kinda melted cause i left it on the BBQ grill last time.. HAHA...
This is to shuck the oyster.
Insert the blade to the pointy side of the oyster. then TWIST the blade for leverage.
not easy to keep the shell open!
before bathe time!
yummy... rinsing it to make sure it's 'clean'
whole plate worth of it!
final touches, a bottle of cheap white wine, but, such a perfect match.
