Steps:
- For the Oysters:
- Begin by shucking oysters. Find a durable, thick cloth and fold it over several times to create a square; this will steady the oysters as you shuck them and also protect your hand. Using the towel as a mitt, hold the oyster firmly on a flat surface. Insert the tip of your oyster knife between the shell halves, and work it around 1 side to the other as you pry it open. Using the knife, cut the muscles away from the top, flat shell, bend the shell back, and discard it. Run the knife underneath the oyster to detach it completely, but leave it in its shell (take care not to cut the meat itself). Nestle the oysters in a bed of crushed ice or wet rock salt to keep them steady. Serve immediately.
- For the Cucumber Mignonette Sauce:
- In a small bowl, combine the rice wine vinegar, shallots, ginger, cucumber, sugar and black pepper; mixing with a fork. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour or up to the day before you plan to serve, to allow the flavors to come together. Serve with raw oysters.
- For the Cocktail Sauce:
- Mix ingredients in a blender to combine. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

Steps:
- Tabasco Ice:
- Pour Tabasco, simple syrup, and 1/2 cup water into a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into a 2 cup container and freeze overnight. A shallow container will flake more easily. Once frozen, flake with a fork and serve alongside raw oysters. Makes 1 cup.
- Horseradish Ice:
- Place horseradish, vinegar, simple syrup, and 1/2 cup water into a blender and blend until smooth. Strain liquid into a 2 cup container and freeze overnight. A shallow container will flake more easily. Once frozen, flake with a fork and serve alongside raw oysters. Makes 1 cup.
- Pickled Red Onion Ice:
- Peel, halve, and very thinly slice red onion. Place in a 1 quart heat-proof container. In a medium pot over medium-high heat, combine vinegar, sugar and 1 cup water. Bring to boil, stir to dissolve sugar, and pour over onion slices. Let stand at room temp until cool. Refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, 10 minutes. Strain liquid into a 2 cup container and freeze overnight. A shallow container will flake more easily. Reserve pickled red onion for another use. Once frozen, flake with a fork and serve alongside raw oysters. Makes 1 1/2 cups.

Steps:
- Beat the cream to soft peaks in a chilled bowl; then fold in the horseradish, chives, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
- Taste for seasoning, adding horseradish and lemon juice as necessary; the mixture should be highly seasoned.
- If you have a fish or vegetable grate, preheat it on the grill grate (medium-high) for 5 minutes, then arrange the oysters on it, rounded side down-otherwise, arrange the oysters directly on the grill grate; grill 6-10 minutes, until the shells open.
- Transfer the oysters to serving plates or a platter, discarding any top shells or oysters that did not open.
- Place a spoonful of horseradish cream on each oyster and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Mix the vinegar and shallots for the dressing in a small bowl and leave this to sit, covered, for an hour or so, so that the shallots can infuse the vinegar. Add all the other ingredients, stir and put into a serving bowl.
- Shuck the oysters - make sure you have an oyster knife; don't try to do this with a regular kitchen knife. Rinse the oysters under cold running water. Throw away any that are open and don't close if you tap them against the side of the sink. Place an oyster rounded-side up on a work surface. Grip the oyster with a tea towel to help protect your hand, leaving the narrow hinged end exposed. Place the tip of the knife between the top and bottom shells just next to the hinge. Carefully push it into the shell, twisting and wiggling the knife tip, to release the top shell. At first, it may seem like you aren't getting there, but keep going with gentle pressure until the shell pops open. Try to keep the oyster level, so the delicious liquor (the briny, salty sea water) stays inside the deeper bottom shell.
- Wipe your knife, then pry open the shell by inserting the knife tip in a few other spots, twisting it to release the shell completely. Keeping the oyster level, run your knife along the inside of the upper shell to cut the muscle that attaches the oyster to it. Remove the top shell. Run your knife along the inside of the lower shell and gently cut the oyster free. Leave the oyster nestled in its shell. (If you open an oyster that has a strong, sulphurous smell, chuck it out: it's dead.)
- Transfer the oyster in its bottom shell to a bed of crushed ice or rock salt that will keep the shell level, while you repeat the process with the remaining oysters. Serve immediately with the dressing; each person should use about ¼ tsp of the dressing for each oyster (you can dress each one in advance yourself if you prefer, and add a dill sprig to the tops).
