1, salt water immersion
Oyster is a kind of marine shellfish, which can be cultured in the natural ocean, so many oysters contain more sediment. It is recommended to soak the bought oysters first.
Step 2 brush the shell
Oysters grow in the ocean, and there are usually a lot of algae and other microorganisms attached to shells, so the shells of oysters should be cleaned.
Step 3 open the oyster shell
When cleaning oysters, open the oyster shell and dig out the oyster meat inside for cleaning. If you eat oysters or roasted oysters, you don't need to dig out the oyster meat. Here are some ways to open the oyster shell:
Method 1:
(1) Find the clearance between the inner and outer shells of oysters.
(2) Insert a knife into the gap.
(3) Then twist the handle hard to open the shell.
(4) Pay attention to wearing gloves to avoid scratches on knives or oyster shells.
Method 2:
(1) Put the washed oysters in a bowl and put them in the microwave oven.
(2) When the fire is heated to 15 seconds, a slight bang can be heard.
(3) Take out the oysters and gently open them.
Insert the knife into the small gap of the oyster, and then rotate the blade clockwise. The blade and the back of the knife simultaneously exert force on the upper and lower shells of the oyster to open the oyster.
Open oysters need to prepare a knife, the specific process is divided into three steps:
1. First, use the tip of a knife to detect the gap between two shells. It's best to start with the middle part. The method is to use the tip of the knife to slowly shake between the two shells, find the gap and then slowly insert it;
2. After the knife is inserted, it is still impossible to open the shell. This is because oysters have two tightly grasped shell muscles. At this time, it is necessary to cut off one side of the shell muscle with a knife, and then the inserted knife can slide up and down along one side of the shell twice, so that the shell muscle can be cut off smoothly.
3. After cutting the shell muscle, you can easily open the shell, and the meat of the oyster will appear immediately.
Never pour the juice out of an oyster after it is opened. That's fresh. If you eat it raw, you can pour it directly into your mouth with meat and water. Soft noodles taste sweet and delicious. If you don't want to eat it raw, you just need to steam it in a steamer for two or three minutes. You can dip it in soy sauce and oyster sauce after taking it out. It will be delicious.
