Oyster Shooters

This recipe is adapted from the Oyster, ginger, steelhead roe, beer dish from the Alinea Cookbook.  

It was one of three recipes Eric and I made for the Alinea Dinner Challenge 2, and by far the most successful.  It was also the easiest - if you can shuck an oyster, you can pull this one off beautifully.  Read on, and I'll explain how.

20 medium oysters
125g peeled ginger
500g water
100g sugar
2g Kosher salt
