Oysters Juice?

by Nathan
(Centerburg, Ohio)

What is the slime in and around an oyster? What is the name of it and what exactly is it.



Hi Nathan

The liquid around the oyster is called the oyster liquor. I'm not sure if it has a more technical name to it.

Thanks for visiting the cookingfishmonger.
