👨🍳 Instructions
- Gently scrub fresh oysters under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris from their shells, discarding any that are open and do not close when tapped.
- Prepare a steamer by adding an inch or two of water to the bottom, then place a steaming rack inside.
- Arrange the cleaned oysters in a single layer on the steaming rack, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
- Cover the steamer tightly with a lid and bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, steam the oysters for 5-7 minutes, or until their shells open slightly.
- Carefully remove the steamed oysters from the steamer using tongs and arrange them on a serving platter, discarding any that did not open.
- Serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges for squeezing over the oysters.
