Oysters + mignonette ice recipe

So, when the CDC quietly stopped monitoring for vibrio, I thought the safest thing I could do is to stop eating raw oysters. Problem is… it’s one of my literal top favorite foods. Anyone else struggling with danger vs delicious?

I realized that the best I can do is check for advisories before buying, and then staying vigilant for symptoms after consuming. First time I’ve gotten oysters in a few months, and man, I missed them.

My favorite way to dress these guys:

-white wine vinegar
-mirin
-shallot
-garlic
-lemon zest
-celery salt, black pepper, chili powder, cayenne

Freeze for 30m-1hr. It will freeze to a hard slushy consistency that is easy to chip off. Chip off mignonette ice and serve over top of raw oysters.
