Oysters with dressing

12-16 VenOysters

Dressing
2 dessertspoon lemon juice
1 dessertspoon shallots, finely-chopped
4 dessertspoon good olive oil

1 bottle champagne
Toast

Mix the dressing.
Open the oysters, keeping the liquor in the shell.
Add a few drops of dressing to each oyster.
Enjoy with cold champagne.
A bite of toast between each oyster helps clear the palette.

Optionally, lightly dust with crushed, crispy bacon but beware of overkill.
