Oysters are highly appreciated all over the world in cooking. It’s more popular than any other shellfish. The most useful property of oysters is that they are rich in vitamin B12, which is not produced in the human body. If this vitamin is absent, dullness and fatigue appear, and activity is significantly reduced. Oysters are also called the anti-stress product, because they are rich in vitamins, trace elements and amino acids that improve brain function and nourish the nerve cells. In addition, these shellfish support the immune system and help it fight viruses and bacteria. The undeniable benefit of oysters is that they contain zinc, a trace element that is necessary for the complete functioning of the entire body.

At the buffet, they are served on a flat dish with lots of crushed ice to keep the clams fresh. Be sure to eat them in half an hour! Lemon is served with the oysters and the juice should be squeezed out of each shell to get rid of the sea flavor and aroma and to make the appetizer fresher and spicier. The waiter can put vinegar, wine essence, tabasco sauce or other dressings, breadcrumbs or bread and butter on the table.

How to eat oysters properly? When you squeeze the lemon juice into the shell, the body of the oyster will begin to shrink slightly, which is a great sign – it means it’s alive. Find among the instruments a special fork with short and long tines or a small spoon. Take the shellfish in one hand and the fork or spoon in the other, gently remove the clam meat and enjoy this delicious delicacy. You can also simply suck the oyster silently from the narrow edge of the shell and drink the juice. The pleasant benefits of tasting this delicacy will be soft and velvety skin, strong healthy nails and lush shiny hair. The fact is that clams are rich in vitamins E, A, C, B and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are responsible for youth, beauty and longevity. So the benefits of oysters for people are obvious!
