Description

Jersey Oysters 12 Pack is a pack of 12 fresh live Jersey oysters — the celebrated rock oyster from the mineral-rich tidal waters of Jersey. Jersey oysters 12 pack is the ideal quantity for a dinner party starter. As a result, 12 oysters provides three per person for four diners as an elegant and effortless opening course. Furthermore, Jersey oysters are known for their plumpness and clean briny freshness. A faint sweetness reflects the exceptional tidal range surrounding the island. In particular, the strong currents around Jersey give the oysters exceptional muscle tone and a very clean flavour.

About Jersey Oysters 12 Pack

We source our oysters from the finest producing regions in Britain and France. In particular, Jersey waters and the Atlantic-facing claires of Charente-Maritime produce oysters that few other locations can match. As a result, we work with trusted producers who share our commitment to sustainable aquaculture. Furthermore, oyster quality depends entirely on the water they grow in and the care taken from harvest to delivery. However, not all oysters are equal — the difference between a great oyster and a mediocre one is immediately apparent. In particular, we stock only varieties with a genuine and distinct character. Additionally, we dispatch oysters on the day of harvest wherever possible. This preserves the freshness and vitality that defines a great oyster. That commitment to provenance and freshness drives every decision we make. That is why this product from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cooks.

Why Choose Jersey Oysters 12 Pack From Us

Serving oysters well requires very little technique. In contrast to other luxury ingredients, oysters need no cooking at all. As a result, the quality of the oyster itself is the only thing that matters. Furthermore, shucking is a skill worth learning. A good oyster knife and a folded cloth are the only tools needed. However, always shuck just before serving as an oyster left open quickly loses its liquor and vitality. In particular, serve on crushed ice with a wedge of lemon and nothing more for the purest expression of flavour. Moreover, mignonette, Tabasco and a good Champagne are the classic companions if accompaniments are wanted. Additionally, oysters are best consumed on the day of opening for the finest flavour and the safest eating experience. That immediacy is part of what makes a great oyster so special.

How to Serve Jersey Oysters 12 Pack

To get the very best from it:

  • Shuck using a folded cloth and a good oyster knife — insert at the hinge, lever upward and slide along the flat shell.
  • Serve immediately on crushed ice, flat side up, with a wedge of lemon alongside.
  • Furthermore, jersey oysters 12 pack suit a classic mignonette dressing — finely diced shallot, red wine vinegar and cracked black pepper.
  • Additionally, add a drop of Tabasco and a squeeze of lemon for the most classic raw oyster experience.

Perfect Pairings

This product pairs beautifully with:

  • Crushed ice, lemon wedges and a glass of Champagne — the definitive pairing
  • A classic mignonette of shallot, red wine vinegar and black pepper
  • A good Muscadet, Chablis or a very cold Guinness alongside
  • Sourdough bread and good unsalted butter as a simple accompaniment

Storage: Keep refrigerated at 0 to 4°C with the flat side up to preserve the natural liquor inside the shell. Oysters are live shellfish and should be consumed within 5 days of delivery. Furthermore, cover with a damp cloth rather than sealing in plastic to allow the oysters to breathe. However, discard any oysters that do not close when tapped, or that have an unpleasant odour. Delivered live and ready to shuck.

However you serve it, this product brings a purity and depth that only the finest live shellfish can deliver. Moreover, a great oyster always rewards simplicity and the finest simple accompaniments.
