    Magnificent system for opening oysters, profesionaels or domestic.

  • his eyebrows are really confusing

  • I think this cooks eyebrows got burned off =D

  • @liebstandarteadolf You can do but not from good ones inclean water and are fresh, also your stomach acid will help kill the microbes etc. Just be wary if they come from areas with lots of heavy metals in the water.

  • If you eat it raw which we always seem to do, wouldn't you get parasites or other microbes that happens to be in that oyster?

  • Thanks for the video it helped. But the truth is I just used some old kitchen utensils that I had lying around to shuck mine, for the first time too!

  • NEVER hold the oyster in your hand to shuck. The muscle connecting the two shells together is closer to the seamless side opposite the hing. Alsways wipe both sides of the knife after the oyster "Pops" but before you shove it in to seperate the shells. He is holding the knife upside down. Knife angle or bend should be countour to the shape of the top shell. To each his own though. Nice presentation and clean oyster, good job.
