Ostra ao bafo

Ostra ao bafo is a traditional oyster-based dish originating from Brazil. The dish consists of boiled oysters, and it’s usually made with a combination of oysters, cachaça, and lemon juice. The oysters are boiled in a mixture of water and cachaça until the shells start to open. They’re removed from the pot and placed on ice to stop the cooking process. Once boiled, the oysters are served with lemon wedges so that each person can drizzle some lemon juice over the oysters before consumption. If desired, a vinaigrette sauce consisting of honey, orange juice, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper can also be served with ostra ao bafo.
