How To Clean Oysters

1. 1

   On the TV program they said 50C, but that's pretty jot, so I think it's fine if the water is hot enough but you can still put your hands in it.

2. 2

   Rinse the frilly parts of the oyster, taking care not to mash the oyster meat (these ugly hands aren't mine, they're my husband's).

3. 3

   This much dirt comes off them.

4. 4

   Rinse the oysters quickly in ice water with a pinch of salt, then pat dry with paper towels.

5. 5

   If you are going to stir fry the oysters, I think you can skip Step 4.

6. 6

   I used to scrub the oysters with katakuriko or grated daikon radish, but I was never sure if it was really cleaning them.

7. 7

   But this method really got them clean, so I wanted to share this tip with everyone.
