Le Père GusReduce Pommeau de Normandie with finely chopped shallots.
Let caramelize, then add cream.
Bring to the boil and adjust seasoning.
Open the oysters, shell them, keeping the water.
Poach the oysters in their own water, just until they simmer, then drain.
Put the oysters back into their shells and top with Pommeau cream.
Bake in the oven until the oysters are lightly gratinated.
The chef’s words : “Pommeau and oyster match perfectly. There’s the smoothness, the creaminess, the roundness of the pommeau and the oyster. It’s super tasty!”
