Mignonette sauce will elevate your oysters—this classic blend of minced shallots, black pepper, and red wine vinegar is a simple yet elegant condiment that brings a tangy, savory burst of flavor to each briny bite.

- 2 tablespoons shallots
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 pinch sea salt , optional
