Hubs and I LOVE oysters, and this is one of our favorite preparations. On the day I took these pics, we had those ginormous West Coast oysters that you have to roast or grill to open unless you like to maim your hands trying to shuck them, but this Jalapeño Ponzu Shoyu makes a delicious alternative mignonette to your raw oysters, too. Once the oysters are open, you can cover and refrigerate for consumption later that same day. Once the oysters have been opened, the ponzu sauce should be cool by now.

  3. Get 1 Tablespoons regular soy sauce

  5. Prepare 1.5-2 Tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice (yuzu is the citrus typically used to make ponzu, but I don't have any on hand)
  6. Make ready 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
  7. Make ready 1 teaspoon sugar
  8. Prepare 1/8-1/4 teaspoon wasabi paste (optional)

Simple Ponzu Sauce with Green Onions. Sprinkle the chives over the Maui Onion Salsa. Shoyu is simply the name for the Japanese-style soy sauce, which can be light (usukuchi) or dark (koikuchi). Tamari is soy-sauce-like product that originated as a by-product of making miso.

Instructions to make Oysters with Jalapeño Ponzu Shoyu:
  1. Mix all ingredients in a small bowl and stir or whisk until the sugar and wasabi are dissolved. (This stuff is also delicious with beef or fish tataki, and as a dip for grilled King Trumpet or Oyster mushrooms, btw…)
  2. If you have access to it, a tiny dollop of masago (that tiny orange caviar you get on your sushi) is a wonderful textural addition.
  3. I also like to add a little finely chopped cilantro on top and lemon wedges on the side.
  4. A chilled bottle of bubbly on the side, and you're good to go. Enjoy!

Shoyu is simply the name for the Japanese-style soy sauce, which can be light (usukuchi) or dark (koikuchi). Tamari is soy-sauce-like product that originated as a by-product of making miso. Originally "ponzu" contains just the citrus juice of sudachi, yuzu, and kabosu and vinegar, and it did not include soy sauce. However, these days when most of Japanese recipes refer "Ponzu", it usually means Ponzu Shoyu (shoyu means soy sauce in Japanese) which contains a mix of ponzu (= citrus), soy sauce, sugar or mirin, and dashi. When having a few oysters, I prefer just a few drops of lemon juice to enhance the pure flavor of the bite.
