Does the thought of shucking an oyster send you running in fear of injury and embarrassment? Have you always wondered what oysters were all about and how you should be tasting them to fit in with your coast-loving friends? Whatever your knowledge or experience with oysters, this class will be a fun way to both learn how to shuck these bountiful bivalves and also to debunk myths you might have heard about them (forget the “months with R” thing!). We’ll be enjoying 3 different oyster varieties from the North Carolina coast, provided by Locals Seafood as we hone our shucking skills. You’ll learn the basics of shucking and get creative suggestions for toppings, beyond cocktail sauce and horseradish. We’ll also discuss different types of oyster knives and supplies needed to host your own oyster tasting.
