They are an excellent source of protein, providing all the essential amino acids the body needs. They are particularly rich in zinc, an important mineral for immune function and wound healing. They also contain significant amounts of iron, vitamin B12, and selenium, which are important for energy metabolism and antioxidant protection.

All our oysters are presented in their original packaging. We don’t propose any extra service to open them.

How to serve an oyster?

Start by sorting through your oysters, they all should be tightly closed. Those that are open and will not close when tapped on a hard surface need to be discarded. Open them following the following video tutorials. Remove the first water juice just after the opening which is only composed of seawater. The oyster will recreate a second one much more flavourful.  Serve the oysters immediately. Putting them on an ice bed would hide some flavors.
