Got a hankerin' for some briny, fresh oysters, but want to add a splash of somethin' extra? Prepare to be amazed as we walk you through a tantalizing recipe for Prosecco Mignonette, a sophisticate sauce that'll take your oyster game to the next level!
Now, hold on a sec, let's talk about mignonette. It's a classic condiment used to highlight the flavorful taste of oysters. Traditionally made with champagne vinegar, we're swapping the bubbly with Prosecco to give our dish a uniquely bold charm!
- Yield: 12 oysters
- Difficulty: Easy Peasy
- Total: 15 mins
Here's whatta ya need:
- 2 tbsp champagne vinegar (or white wine vinegar if champagne is nowhere to be found)
- 2 tbsp finely chopped shallots (from approximately 1/2 a medium-sized shallot)
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp chilled Prosecco or dry sparkling wine
- 12 well-shucked oysters, served on the half shell
Ready to shake things up? Let's rock and roll!
Drop the vinegar, shallots, salt, and pepper in a teeny, tiny bowl and stir till they're friendlier than a couple of long-lost pals. Let them chill out for at least 10 minutes, so their flavors can fuse into one, harmonious, mouthwatering medley. Just before it's time to serve 'em up, sprinkle in the chilled Prosecco, and SHAZAM!
Now, all that's left is to spoon the delectable Prosecco Mignonette onto those oysters and dig in!
Now, if you've got the itch for more excitement, you can rally up some optional add-ons:
- Add a squeeze of citrus (lemon or lime will do) for an extra zing.
