How do you prepare oysters?

I’m happy to help you. Do you mean the shellfish, or the sea creatures?
assistant
Yes, the shellfish. I want to serve them for dinner.

There are different methods, but I think you’ll probably need to prepare them in several steps. You’ll need to remove the meats of the shellfish, so start by soaking the oysters in a solution of lemon juice and salt for 30 minutes. Then use a knife to carefully remove the meat of the oyster, and rinse it well to remove the unpleasant taste of the oyster. You may want to use a towel to dry it off, so it doesn’t get watery, since you’re going to place it in the pan directly. Then you can heat some olive oil in a pan over high heat and saute the oysters until they are nicely browned on all sides. It’s best to serve them on a bed of some green, to add a bit of color, but just about anything works.

Great. Can I eat them raw?
