Oysters au Gratin with Parmesan

Casually popping here after months to drop my recipe of oysters au gratin with parmesan in last minute before holiday celebrations! If I’m reappearing here for the occasion, it’s also because it’s thanks to this oysters au gratin recipe that I finally got to enjoy eating oysters, after something like two decades of failed attempts, despite my willingness to like those little creatures – don’t judge me. If you’ve never managed to like raw oysters either, please don’t give up just yet and give a chance to this recipe, maybe I’ll manage to make you change your mind.

All the oyster purists out there might not be fans of all these additional ingredients, but be reassured, their iodine taste is still pretty present, while their viscous texture is replaced by a slight crunch. The oyster water/lemon/shallot sauce will also remind the one that’s usually served with raw oysters and a good old slice of dark bread.

Quantity wise, you can go for 6 oysters per person for a generous appetizer. In case you can foresee some liver crisis by the end of the meal, then chill and just go for 3 oysters per person!
