Tips:
- Use fresh oysters: Fresh oysters are essential for this dish. Look for oysters that are plump and have a briny smell. Avoid oysters that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
- Shuck the oysters carefully: To shuck an oyster, hold it in a towel and insert the oyster knife into the hinge. Twist the knife to pry open the shell. Be careful not to cut yourself.
- Make the ginger-lime sauce ahead of time: The ginger-lime sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. This makes it a great option for a quick and easy appetizer.
- Serve the oysters immediately: Oysters are best served immediately after they are shucked. This will ensure that they are fresh and flavorful.
