Scottish Oysters
Oysters are eaten all over the world, and considered a delicacy. There are many oysters festivals, with the most famous being the Clarenbridge and Galway Oyster Festivals in Ireland. Oysters are enjoyed equally raw or cooked and are traditionally eaten both ways. They are delicious raw with a little lemon juice (and a pint of Guinness in Ireland) or shallot vinegar. They are also great grilled on the half shell with a little parmesan. Opening oysters is a sport, and an experience ‘shucker’ can open an oyster in about 3 seconds. Although my advice is take your time. These oysters are Scottish and are cultivated they have a great flavour and are virtually grit free.
