Tips on how to open (shuck) oysters: 1.Scrub the oysters under running water to clean shells. 2.Place oyster, flat side up, on a board and press onto end opposite hinge using a cloth to protect hand. 3.Insert tip of oyster knife next to hinge, push firmly against hinge and pry the shells apart, sliding the knife against the inside of the top shell to sever the muscle holding the shell together. 4.Discard top shell, rinse oyster in bottom shell lightly in a bowl of cold water to remove shell fragments and grit. 5.With oyster knife, loosen oyster from bottom shell and turn it over for good presentation
