Cooking Tips:
-
Choose Fresh Oysters: Opt for the freshest oysters available, as their flavor and texture are key to a successful baked oysters dish.
-
Even Cheese Distribution: When adding cheese, ensure an even distribution over each oyster for a consistent and delicious cheesy crust.
-
Don't Overbake: Keep a close eye on the oven to avoid overcooking; oysters should be tender, not rubbery, when served.
- Preheat Your Oven: Always preheat your oven to the specified temperature before placing the oysters inside to ensure even cooking and a beautifully golden crust.
