Notes

Shuck the oysters using a thick gardening glove and a sturdy (but dull) knife. Hold the oyster in the gloved hand with the flatter side up, keeping the oyster as level as possible. Locate the hinge at the 'tip' of the shell, and insert the knife tip to pry the shell apart. Apply twisting pressure to lift the top portion off. Once the shell pops open, keep the oyster flat to prevent the juices inside from dripping out. Discard the top portion of the shell. Use the knife to separate the meat of the oyster from the shell by sliding it under the end opposite the hinge near the curved lip.
