Abstract
A method for producing frozen oysters on the half shell, which comprises the steps of freezing live oysters in their shells, so that the oysters hinges will break open; subjecting the frozen oysters to a water treatment to promote disengagement of the oysters' flesh from one thin shell; and percussing the water treated oysters, so that at least one shell will be knocked off.
