Recipe: Oysters, Caviar and Bubbles

Ingredients
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon minced shallot (1 small shallot)
1/2 teaspoon pink peppercorns, crushed
2 tablespoons chilled prosecco
Pinch salt
12 oysters on the half shell
2 ounces hackleback or paddlefish caviar

Directions
Combine the lemon juice, shallots and peppercorns in a small bowl. Let sit in the fridge for about 1 hour to let the flavors marry.

Just before serving, add the prosecco to the sauce and season with a pinch of salt. Spoon the desired amount of the mignonette sauce over the oysters and top each with a dollop of caviar. Serve immediately.
