Brittany oyster n°4 15kg
620168
The briny freshness of the Breton coast for your buffets and platters.
The Brittany oyster, selected by Atelier Marée de Le Delas, embodies all the vigour and purity of the Armorican coast. Farmed in the open sea, it benefits from powerful currents that give it a wild character and a distinctly briny flavour. Size No. 4 corresponds to a medium to small oyster, particularly prized for its delicacy and firm texture. This 15 kg basket format is ideal for catering professionals, oyster shuckers and event caterers requiring large volumes and consistent quality.
Professional uses, preparation and storage:
► Culinary applications: Thanks to its size 4, this oyster is perfect for enjoying raw on a seafood platter, accompanied by shallot vinegar or a simple squeeze of lemon. Its size also makes it ideal for canapés at cocktail receptions or for creative cold dishes, such as a sea water and cucumber jelly. Its flesh is firm and offers a lingering finish characteristic of Breton oysters.
► Preparation: For easy opening and optimal safety, use a suitable oyster knife and protect your hand with a mesh glove. It is advisable to discard the first batch of brine after opening; the oyster will secrete a second, purer and more flavourful one, ready for tasting. Ensure the oysters are presented on a bed of crushed ice or fresh seaweed to maintain their temperature and appearance.
► Storage: A live product that must be stored at a temperature between +5°C and +10°C, away from light. Keep the oysters flat, with the rounded side facing downwards, ideally in their original, tightly sealed basket to retain their intertidal water.
