EVERGREENS AND TOMATOES
About the Recipe
If you've met me or read my blogs by now you know I love oysters and tomatoes. I've been noodling for some time over how to bring my love of oysters and tomatoes together (without creating a basic oyster shooter), and I've finally found it. You don't need to use a green tomato variety like Green Zebra, but I fell in love with the combination for this varietal in particular due to its citrus and tangy taste. This is a perfect appetizer that requires no cooking, but will certainly impress your guests.
Ingredients
1-2 dozen oyster (aim for 4-6 per oyster eating person)
1/2 a shallot
2-3 ounce tomato - I used one Green Zebra which is a green and yellow varietal known for its tangy, citrus flavor
3 Tbsp champagne vingegar
Preparation
Step 1:
Combine shallot, champagne vinegar, and tomato in an immersion blender and blend at high speed until smooth
Step 2:
Shuck the oysters. Don't know how to shuck oysters or need a refresh? Check out my blog on How to Shuck Oysters Like a Pro.
Step 3:
Spoon on your delicious mignonette and enjoy!
