Key storage tips:
Keep them cold: Store at 32–38°F (0–3°C).
Use a sealed container: Ideally the original container with the oyster liquor.
Don't freeze unless necessary: Freezing affects texture and flavor.
Always check for off smells, discoloration, or sliminess — if anything seems off, it's best to discard them.
