I gather them from here, Isabel.
Nothing better - just cook for a few minutes with dry white wine, parsley, a chopped small shallot that has been softened in butter (olive oil also acceptable) and a little cream. Good bread with a dab of salted butter and a glass of the same white wine are the only accompaniments needed ... Perfection!
(Never add garlic. I love garlic but it totally dominates and ruins mussels, imho!)
All I can add is that my girlfriend adores my mussels!
Here in the south mussels are... well... not as I enjoy them: I prefer the small and full ones.
As long as someone enjoys what we cook it is a great joy!
Have a nice day both of you
The sky, the rocks, the sea....Yes!! The mussels....No! I'm totally allergic and absolutely ill. Like the taste but they hate my insides!!!....It's a beautiful view though!
Great shot Andy. Reading of allergies; I had a couple of sips of my friends cider on the Thames boat ride. I completely forgot I was allergic to it and soon had a red rash on my face and neck! Luckily I always carry the tablets!! The sun must have got to me ;-)
