what are good accompaniment dishes? i would love to prepare a complete table for my family, and i’m struggling to figure out what dishes would compliment this soup versus overpowering it.

In reply to Yale. No you don't need to shuck them yourself for this recipe. You can use canned/jarred fresh oysters.

Hello! I’m in love with oysters. I live in Maryland so oysters are plentiful! Can I use a can of fresh oysters? Or do I need to buy whole oysters and shuck them myself?

In reply to Kathy. aww that's nice to hear you make your parents Korean meals. The potato soup has tofu in it, and the tofu may change in texture when frozen. I haven't tried to freeze the oyster soup, but I think it should be fine. Sorry I can't give you a definite answer. Hope you try it and let me know. Thanks.

Hi Hyosun,

First, thank you for your recipes! I use your recipes to cook homemade meals for my parents, who can no longer cook. I’d like to make them the oyster soup and the potato soup to take home. Would these do well in the freezer?

Thank you!
Kathy
