Ingredients
Preparation
Joe Simone Executive Chef of Tosca Restaurant, Hingham, Massachusetts 1. Carefully open the oysters, reserving the liquor. Wrap each oyster with pancetta and place in a cleaned oyster shell. 2. Place reserved oyster liquor, vinegar, cinnamon, juniper, bay leaves, peppercorns in a saucepan and simmer 15 minutes or until the vinegar has reduced by two thirds. 3. Using a whisk, add the butter one piece at a time and whisk until all the butter is incorporated before adding more butter. If the sauce seems about to boil remove it from the heat-if the sauce boils it will break. 4. Keep adding butter one piece at a time until the sauce is thick and tasty- you may not need one or two pieces. 5. Roast the oysters for 6-10 minutes in a preheated 450F oven-until the pancetta is almost crispy. 6. Remove the oysters from the oven, allow to cool for 2 minutes, arrange on a serving platter and drizzle the balsamic vinegar sauce over the oysters.
