Mussels

Thursday, September 27, 2007

When I met Hubby, I had never had lobster, mussels and quite a few other things. Turns out we both love Mussels and they’re SO EASY to make. We usually just throw a bunch of stuff in a pot, but here’s an attempt at a recipe:

Steamed Mussels (by ME!)
1 pound of mussels
1 cup white wine
1/2 onion – chopped
3 cloves garlic – minced

Pour everything into a big pot. Be sure to throw out any mussels that are already opened.

Cover pot and put burner on med-high. When mussels are all opened, they are done. Serve with wine sauce.

Main Meal, Seafood

Ohh I love that it’s an all-natural mint flavor. So much better than the fake stuff.

  I agree. Hubby likes to give me a hard time by calling me a food snob for trying to avoid fake stuff in everything we eat. I figure, it’s worth the effort. And the name calling 😉

  I can’t believe you’re commenting on blogs while at a blogging conference. Overachiever 😛

  I know – I realized that too. But it’s working again now. Not sure if it was a Feedly issue or something on my end…

Really good! I may have steeped the mint too long.. A little earthy. Will try again!

  Oh bummer! I’ve never had ice cream that I’d call “earthy”…

Would you consider doing a mint chocolate chip ice cream with goat’s milk? Or do you think the “goaty” would show through too much?

  Interesting idea. I think it would be good. This ice cream was very minty, so I think it would mask the goatiness of the milk.
