How to Make Fire And Ice Oysters With Horseradish Sauce
- **Prepare the Horseradish Sauce:** In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, and a pinch of salt.
- **Chill the Sauce:** Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- **Prepare the Oysters:** Rinse and scrub 1 dozen fresh oysters thoroughly under cold running water using a stiff brush. Remove any debris.
- **Shuck the Oysters:** On a folded kitchen towel, place an oyster flat side up. Protect your hand with another kitchen towel. Using an oyster knife, carefully pry open the oyster near the hinge.
- **Preserve the Oyster Liquor:** Gently loosen the oyster from its shell using the oyster knife. Try to retain as much of the oyster liquor (the liquid inside) as possible.
- **Discard Top Shell:** Discard the top, flatter shell, keeping the oyster in the deeper, bottom shell.
- **Grill the Oysters:** Preheat your grill to high heat. Place the oysters, shell-side down, directly over the high heat. Grill for 2-4 minutes, or until the juices boil and almost completely evaporate.
- **Remove from Grill:** Using tongs, carefully remove the hot oysters from the grill.
- **Serve Immediately:** Spoon a small dollop of the chilled horseradish sauce onto each grilled oyster. Serve immediately with cocktail forks while the oysters are hot and the sauce is delightfully cool.
