Belon flat oysters

Belon flat oysters are a sought-after delicacy that is renowned for their distinctive taste and unique appearance. Also known as European flat oysters, Belon oysters are native to the cold waters of the Atlantic coast of France, particularly in the region of Brittany.

In terms of appearance, Belon flat oysters are easily recognizable by their distinctively flat shape and their dark, rough shell that is often marked with deep ridges. The meat of the oyster is typically pale in color, with a firm, meaty texture that is prized by seafood enthusiasts.

Uses: 

When consumed, Belon flat oysters have a unique and complex flavor that is often described as earthy, mineral-rich, and slightly metallic. They are often served raw on the half shell to showcase their unique flavor and delicate texture, and are considered to be one of the most flavorful varieties of oysters available. Whether enjoyed on their own or as part of a gourmet meal, these exquisite oysters are sure to impress with their unique flavor and distinct appearance.
