Pink Oyster
A tier
Pink oysters (P. djamor) are vividly pink, frilly, tropical oysters with bacon-savory aroma when cooked and colour that fades hard with heat. Texture is more delicate and crisp-edged than grey oysters. Use same day if possible; short shelf life. Sear hot; enjoy residual pink before it dulls. A farmers-market showpiece.
