Dating back to 1850, Willapa Bay oysters were the first oysters to be harvested en masse. These oysters were popularized among San Francisco forty-niners, and by 1900 the stock was depleted. Today, most of these oysters are produced for the shucked market, but some are available on the half-shell.
Oysters are not only a delicious delicacy but also a powerhouse of nutrition. They are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and essential minerals like zinc, iron, and selenium. Consuming oysters can help support heart health, boost the immune system, and provide a rich source of vitamins and minerals.
Willapa Bay oysters can be enjoyed raw on the half shell, grilled, or incorporated into various recipes. Their unique flavor profile makes them a versatile addition to any seafood dish.
