Oysters

Fresh oysters, usually shucked and small in Korean cooking, eaten raw or briefly cooked.

Fresh oysters are sold at fishmongers and fish counters, mainly in the colder months; shucked frozen oyster meat is available in Asian grocers and works well in cooked dishes such as soups or pancakes.

Substitute:

In cooked dishes, mussels or clams work, though they are firmer, less creamy and less briny; for oysters eaten raw there is no substitute, and canned smoked oysters do not suit the flavour.
