Oysters with Bellota Ham Meunière & Panceta Bacon FISAN


Alongside bellota ham, oysters are perhaps the food that is most associated with exquisiteness. In this recipe, the Torres Brothers bring both together in a simple but magnificent creation.

INGREDIENTS

Some chervil leaves

80 g FISAN Bellota Iberico Panceta Bacon

500 g coarse salt

12 oysters

 

Ham meunière:

150 g butter

200 ml FISAN Bellota 100% Iberico Ham broth

1/2 lime juice

 

Ham broth:

5 FISAN Bellota 100% Iberico Ham bones

1 onion

2 pig’s trotters

1/2 leek

2 carrots

1 celery stick

ELABORATION

Ham broth preparation:

Place the blanched ham bones in a pot with a vegetable mirepoix (onion, leek, carrot, celery).

Cook for 4 hours.

 

Ham meunière preparation:

Melt butter in a frying pan and cook until it takes on a toasted colour (beurre noisette).

Add the ham broth and lime juice, strain and reduce slightly to achieve a sauce texture.

Cut a block of the previously frozen FISAN Iberico Panceta in thin slices, using a meat slicer. Set aside for later.

Soak the coarse salt with a little water to add shine.

 

Oyster preparation:

Clean well to remove any debris and shuck the oysters.

Clean the shell thoroughly to serve the oyster on it. 

Arrange the coarse salt on a plate, seeking to achieve volume.

Sear the oysters slightly in the frying pan so that they become heated but not too cooked.

 

Plating:

Once seared, return the oysters to their shells, pour the ham meunière on them and cover with a thin layer of bellota Iberico panceta bacon.

Finally, torch.

Serve with a chervil leaf on each oyster.
