How to eat oysters
Oysters are the most unusual and controversial seafood in terms of taste. To a person who has never dealt with them before, they will most likely seem bland and tasteless, so it is best to add products to them that enhance the main taste. These enhancers include butter, soy sauce, and tomatoes. For example, you can add to them sauce made from fried in butter white or onions with the addition of cream. For a more "Asian" serving, you can put two saucers with oysters: one with soy sauce, and the other with a tightly mixed ball of wasabi - it is wasabi that reveals that oyster taste well.

To make the sauce tastier, add some oyster sauce and Japanese vinegar to the soy. Decorate the dish with lime and chopped green onions, put some chuka salad from the sushi market inside the shells. You can form a neat pillow from chuki, on top of which you can put shells to your taste.

Cooking oysters costs exactly as much as you plan to eat at one time. Never cook them for future use, because a product that is usually eaten raw will not bring you gastronomic pleasure the next day.
