Their size (No. 2) makes them ideal for raw service or catering use. Selected by Le Delas. Culinary uses Serve raw on crushed ice with shallot vinegar, lemon wedges, or classic mignonette.

An expert family oyster farm, ideally located on the island of Marennes Oléron.
A familiy oyster farm is located on Oleron Island in the center of the bassin Marennes-Oleron. Connected directly to the sea allows us to cultivate 25 hectares of claires. Just as vineyards bring character to certain wines, the claire has the effect on oysters of natural exchanges and conditions which are never identical, depending on exposition, location and quality of the ground. They manage the entire production life cycle from the reproduction until the finishing in claires, a know-how transmitted from generation to generation. It is during this process that the oysters acquire the subtleties of regional flavours. The claires, situated between the land and the sea, are the reflection of those two environments. Their passion has been rewarded since 1998 by over 23 distinctions granted by the "Concours Général Agricole de Paris", the European Masters of the degustation...See all products in this range
