  • Preparation

    For the brine

    • Sauté the garlic cloves in the oil and, later, the julienned vegetables. Before they brown, deglaze with the vinegar and allow up to half to be consumed.
    • Add the poultry broth, as well as the salt, the saffron and the ginger. Let the mixture reduce a third and reserve the brine.
    • With the oyster open and separated from the shell, you only have to heat the brine to later add the oyster and remove immediately from the fire while hot. It will be enough to cook the oyster slightly and add brine just before serving it
      You can use this brine base for any dish you like, above all, in dishes related to the sea. Like mackerel fillets or mussels.
