Important Notes When Enjoying Sashimi Oysters

Oysters can range in flavor from sweet and creamy to tangy and spicy, often leaving a memorable umami aftertaste that gives them their distinctive appeal.

Quality: Only use oysters labeled “sashimi grade” to ensure food safety and hygiene. These oysters are typically processed under strict standards to eliminate harmful bacteria.
How to eat: Oysters are usually eaten raw or with a light squeeze of lemon. Pairing them with wasabi and soy sauce not only enhances the flavor but also provides mild antibacterial properties.
Storage:
Frozen oysters: Must be fully thawed before use.
Shelf life: After thawing or purchase, they should be consumed within the same day (usually within 24 hours) to ensure maximum freshness.
