On tasting, the special de claire is distinct from the fine de claire by a firmer texture to the flesh, the volume in the mouth, and a remarkable balance of sweetness and salt.

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.
