How to Prepare Oysters

It's such a waste to use grated daikon (traditional Japanese way to clean oysters)!
Simply mix them gently. Try not to massage them.
They will lose their freshness quickly so prepare the oysters just before cooking!
I also run a blog by the way! Please check it out! http://ameblo.jp/cooking-s-papa/entry-11729270487.html. Recipe by Cooking S Papa

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Mix the oysters together with the coarse salt and the katakuriko. Don't add water and gently mix together for about 10 seconds. The trick is to not add any water!
- 2
Once you have mixed it for about 10 seconds, add 50 ml of water and then gently mix for about 20 seconds. Try not to massage them! This will draw out the sliminess and the grit.
- 3
Transfer the oysters into another bowl and rinse in 3% salt water. If you're just using water with no salt, rinse real quickly in about five seconds.
- 4
Drain well in a colander and dry well with paper towels. You are done prepping!

How To Clean Oysters How To Clean Oysters
On a talk show on a local TV station here in Hokkaido, they said that you can wash shucked oysters in 50°C hot water. I tried it out right away and the oysters really became clean. I wanted to share this with everyone, so I uploaded this tip.I was listening to the program while working, so I filled the gaps based on my own experience.Regarding the temperature of the water, if you have a thermometer you may want to measure it so that it's 50°C, but if you don't don't worry. Your body temperature is around 36°C, so the water should be hot to the touch. Bath water is around 42°C so use that as a guideline to how hot the water should feel. Recipe by mielle cookpad.japan -

Oysters Marinated in Olive Oil Oysters Marinated in Olive Oil
I had these at an izakaya (Japanese pub) and really enjoyed them. The shop used white sesame oil to marinate their oysters but I always make mine with olive oil.After adding the oyster sauce, lower the heat to low so that it doesn't burn.You can adjust the amount of ra-yu.There's the chance that the oil will harden while in the refrigerator, but if you leave it out at room temperature a bit before eating, it will be ok.When cooking the oysters in the beginning, make sure all the water is evaporated!

Rinse in water after that, and they'll become very clean.If you pat the oysters dry very well, you'll only need a light coating of katakuriko! Recipe by EnjoyKitchen cookpad.japan -
