Don’t like oysters, but enjoy the video
What is the potted plant in the background? Looks very much like a curry leaf, or did {I get it wrong?
Terrible audio!
Great job, Dan, as usual. Thanks.
So what does make a gelatinous loogie taste better? If you tell me onions and vinegar you’re gonna have to start over…
I use canned oysters (Eastern Shore) for quick oyster stew. Canned oysters are not meant to eat right out of the can – too tinny/ muddy tasting. I also like smoked oysters in a can. My absolute favorite outside of fresh from shell is Fried Oysters. A must on Cape Cod.
Lemon, hot sauce and a glass of Gewürtztraminer.
Dan's 💋 are so sexy/kissable 🔥
My most very favorite seafood, and I will eat them any way you want to serve them – raw, smoked, fried, in a soup, etc. But the best way is a good old-fashioned South Carolina oyster roast!
Lemon and salt!
Wow it all sounds so good.
Im so in love with Dan 😍
I grill with garlic butter and parsley and then put parmesan oil reggiano or my favorite locatelli pecorino Romano in the last couple of minutes, it's also in my garlic butter. It's delicious 🙂
I live in a landlocked city and I would like to try oysters, there are a few oyster bars but I'm on the fence about trying them there because they're too expensive, are they really worth it? And for the first time how many oysters should I eat? Thanks
Is that a curry leaf plant in that little blue pot???
Love oysters, also a Washington State native so seafood is part of life here, and oysters are no exception. Make them roasted on half shell, that is, roast them until they pop open then shuck them while hot and drizzle melted salted butter with garlic on them and then go slurp. Yum.

I'm just here for Dan, oysters are gross, Dan isn't.
Oyster dressing, oyster rockefeller, oysters on the half shell with lemon and Louisiana hot sauce and a cold beer on the piers with my husband, were the good old days, Tabasco sauce does nothing for oysters in my opinion. Oyster bisque and of course fried oysters. Always in and for ever oysters in seafood gumbo.
Dear Dan, how can someone in the Midwest guarantee that they are getting safe oysters? Let’s face it, we are a far distance from any ocean. At least as where I live in Wisconsin. This is the main reason I have never tried a raw oyster, but I do love them smoked.
Oysters,,,, 👎 , it’s a texture thing but I watch just because you’re such a cutie.

We love oysters!! Especially cooked on the grill on the half shell. Yum!!
Horseradish, hot sauce and lemon
I love Dan more than oysters.
Dan I always love what you're putting on the screen. You mentioned a fellow from the Northwest who suggested grilling oysters. Oh yea they are fantastic. One word of caution though. Fyi I live in Washington state. Anyway its illegal in Washington to remove the shells of oysters from public beaches. And it's a for a very good reason. The " spat" ,the larval oysters connect the other oyster shells. When you remove the shells from the tidal area you remove future generations of oysters, and are risking a very large fine. But not to worry, all you need to do is find a oystermen business or fishmonger and buy your oysters. Grill those. I'm not sure how Oregon handles the removal of oysters from the tidal areas. One last thing I'm just throwing out there. If you and your film crew would ever like to come out here to " The Great Pacific Northwest " to do some Crabbing for Dungeness, pick Oysters from Washington's Willapa Bay,considered one of the cleanest bays in our country with what is arguably the best oysters in our country. Or go salmon fishing on our rivers and estuaries just let me know. This season is just a little to crazy right now,in a good way. But if interested let me know. I promise it would be fun, educational and really great eating. Probably have to pair some of that great food with some Northwest beers and Wines. Have a great day. 😃🦀🦪🍻🌤
Don't see how anyone could criticize you Dan. Oysters are ok, but my preference is for cherry stones on the half shell. Or ipswich clams deep fried. That's good eating
I don't eat oysters but I enjoy Dan's commentary and come to hear him talk about food science.
With finger limes sounds spectacular. I am also down with the Mezcal. Perhaps both together.
"it warms" the cockles of "my heart"
Great information here as always, Dan. I’ve enjoyed oysters with many different toppings, but my favorite is still no garnish whatsoever just the sublime succulent oyster and it’s on liquor. Now I am salivating…
