What I Recreated: Oysters

The Place: Aquagrill*

The Location: 210 Spring Street, New York, NY 10012

The Dish: Raw Oysters: Maine, Washington State, New York

What's inside:

raw oysters, East, and West Coast
fresh lemon juice
hot cocktail-like sauce
salt

Oysters are full of zinc. Zinc has plenty of benefits including boosting the immune system, supporting thyroid function, and supporting ovulation in women leading to the production of progesterone.  

My recreation:

Ingredients:

oysters in the raw-bought at Fairway- $1 each
fresh lemon juice
siracha
poppy seeds- for my own flair

 

This is the final blog for this month's theme of Traditional Cultural Foods.
