I’ve seen in person years old frozen wild salmon fillets cut down and repacked into 3-5 and 5-6 oz vacuum packs. Seafood has a crazy salvage and mislabeling scene particularly in restaurants. It goes in and out of the news over the years. Scallops are one of the things that gets faked.

texturally youre never going to convince anyone who gives a poo poo that fake crab meat or shark is a scallop but you could definitely bivalve flavorize whatever.

all you gotta do is go to your local shuckery and say "please sir can i have some oyster" and they will give you some. Make sure you say the "i" in lowercase or you won't get any oyster

If you want to eat oysters grow up by the ocean where they grow so you can have a local oyster that when shucked reveals a tiny bit of the water you learned to swim in. This way when you eat it you can miss your home and regret aging like a real oyster fan. Bonus points if it makes you cry Also oysters aren't dangerous outside of "R" months but they're usually not as good because they have literally just spooged most of their body out as spawn and they're all weak and piddly.

nah go down tha pacific oyster pier and ask for the biggest ones they got- it should barely fit in your mouth and you should have to chew it at least half a dozen times. you can heckle the plant workers while you eat and they have to bring you more cocktail sauce if you ask for it

Thank you for the oyster advice I just don’t want a bad first experience like when I decided to try Beach Cliff sardines in soybean oil as my introduction to the ‘dine world

there was a corner store seafood place near me in New York that had something like this but fresher with scallops, really tiny squid, several other things that you could stir fry and serve with pasta and I’ve never been able to find it again

if you're eating them fresh and you're shucking them yourself, as you should be, don't eat the ones that have already opened. that's true for all shellfish but you seem inexperienced in these matters and I don't want you to die. how to shuck. oyster knife in one hand, towel doubled up over the other. oyster goes on towel, knife goes into the little hole on the back of the oyster (the part of the shell that hinges, not the part that opens wide), usually angled up a little bit. put that knife in that oyster hole slowly and kinda jiggle/twist it around a little, when the oyster pops, shim the knife around the shell until the shell pops open fully. the oyster is attached to the shell by a foot in the inside bottom of the shell, cut that off

Cat Hassler posted:I think the fact that I live in Seattle makes me a loser for asking about this Head out towards the coast and find a dock with a processing plant on a bay with a shack in the parking lot that’s covered in crushed oyster shells. Maybe they’ll have mignonette maybe they won’t but this is how I introduce people to oysters here. If you’re feeling bougie maybe Walrus & Carpenter for their escalating happy hour (if they still do it). I’m particularly fond of Harry’s down on Alki for their happy hour oysters but I’m over on the West side and it’s easy and affordable. Seconding to start with the small ones, much more approachable and delicious. Edit: My early experiences with oysters were mostly lovely canned ones and the common refrain was to swallow them whole, which I did. I’ve since graduated to chewing the fresh ones especially because drat, shits good. But as said above if it weirds you out just slurp it down whole at the start and go from there.

this thread and the one before it began ironically and then rapidly became 100% wholesome and earnest to the point it seems ironic, right up until you try some dines and we convert you fish are timeless

beachcliff is like cheap beer. you hit a certain age and you're just too old for it. the bigger concern, one of the thread commandments, is to not have someone pick up a can of, like, bumblebee in mustard, try it, determine that it's disgusting, then write off sardines entirely
