1\/2 cup creme fraiche or sour cream <\/span><\/p>\n

1 T. minced fresh tarragon <\/span><\/p>\n

1 lemon, zest grated <\/span><\/p>\n

1 1\/2 tsp. undiluted orange juice concentrate <\/span><\/p>\n

Preheat the broiler. In a mixer bowl, using an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat the cr\u00e8me fraiche or sour cream until soft peaks form. Stir in the tarragon, lemon zest, orange juice concentrate, salt, and cayenne; set aside. In a jelly-roll pan, layer the kosher or rock salt 1\/4-inch thick. Gently press the oyster shells into the salt to hold them in place. Broil the oysters 6 inches from the heat source for 4 to 5 minutes, or just until they begin to release their juices and the shells pop open slightly. Remove from the broiler and remove the top oyster shell by inserting a butter knife and popping the shell off. Top each oyster with a spoonful of creme fraiche topping and serve immediately.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
