Local Oysters with Spicy Horseradish Mignonette

With oysters living in Napeague Harbor about 30 feet from our back door and Horseradish growing wild on the side of our house, as you can imagine, oysters are a staple in our home. Below is the recipe for my classic Mignonette with a spicy twist, which is best paired with Bonterra Organic Sauvignon Blanc!

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon coarsely ground black peppercorns

1/2 cup white or red wine vinegar

2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots or red onions, minced

1 tablespoon grated fresh horseradish

Pinch of ground cloves

Pinch of ground chipotle

Pinch of Salt

Directions:

Mix above in a small bowl with a fork and top on ice chilled fresh shucked oysters.
