If you're serving the oysters with an accompaniment, embed the serving bowl in the ice and then fill it. You'll need an oyster knife and a large, deep, chilled serving platter. This recipe contains raw or undercooked seafood, which comes with inherent risks. To learn more about food safety, check out this guide.
Instructions
