fresh and good portion

The frozen oysters from Korea tastes much better than jar oysters in local grocery. It's also more versatile to always have on hand in the freezer for seafood soft tofu soup (해물 순두부찌개), panko fried oysters, seafood pancake (해물파전) or even throw a few in ramen.

Fresh and delicious, no strange taste, I would buy it again.

I've bought this many times. I heat it up a little in an air fryer before eating it. It's plump and delicious!
