There are five types of oysters in the U.S., and here's everything you need to know about them.

I Just Learned That Raw Oysters Are Still Alive When You Eat Them

Pan-Roasted Lobster with Chive Beurre Blanc

We serve this on Boxing Day, and though it seems like a complicated recipe, once you get the hang of butchering the lobsters the rest is easy. Be sure to serve the lobsters on a warmed large platter so the beurre blanc stays hot.

Littleneck Clams In the Style of Escargot

Easy-to-find little neck clams stand in for snails in this riff on the French classic. The quick wine-brightened garlic butter melts into the clam liquor to create an irresistible broth; have plenty of bread onhand for non-stop sopping.
