Oysters and Mignonette with Camille Beccera
Eating oysters for Thanksgiving is a long-standing tradition, one that dates back to at least the 17th century, when they were likely part of the original feast shared by the Pilgrims and Wampanoag people. By the 19th century, oysters had become a holiday staple across coastal America, appearing in soups, stuffings and savoury pies. For this story, photographer and food stylist Camille Becerra explores the enduring connection between oysters and the season of gratitude.
