Oyster with foamy butter, citrus, basil, and passion fruit

Oyster in a foamy butter sauce made with yuzu, lime, and grapefruit, among other ingredients.

Served with basil oil and cream, finished with a spicy passion fruit vinaigrette.

 

This dish is delicious in combination with, for example, a sauvignon blanc. The fresh taste of a sauvignon blanc provides a nice contrast to the rich creamy flavor of oysters.
