How Do You Use An Oyster Shucking Board?
An oyster shucking board is used to securely hold an oyster while shucking it. The flat surface of the board provides a stable base to prevent the oyster from moving while shucking. To use, place the oyster on the board with the flat side up and the hinge pointing towards you. Use an oyster knife to pry open the shell, and then use the knife to cut the muscle that connects the two halves of the shell. The oyster can then be removed from the shell and served on the half shell.
