The creamy broth this creates is terrific. I guarantee it will be sopped up with bread or a spoon. Anyone not like mussels?? Recipe says it is for four but try it for two. It will not be wasted!! -- posted by Tebo

I've been known to invite a few neighbours over on a summer afternoon and cook these buggers in a pot over a hot charcoal grill. Crack open an ice-cold beer and enjoy! -- posted by Mille®

A quick and tasty mussel dish. The juices must be sopped up with a good french bread. Serves 4 but 2 can handle it with no problem usually. -- posted by Tebo

Shellfish Paella

My own variation of a popular one-pot meal. The addition of pepper flakes adds a bit of zip to an otherwise fairly bland dish. Serve with chunks of baguette, Italian bread or Pita. Of course, plenty of Chardonnay to wash down the rice. -- posted by TOOLBELT DIVA

If you love mussels, this recipe is a keeper. Very easy and lots of flavor. My kids love it! Add a salad and a glass of wine and you have a meal. I buy a 2lb. bag of frozen mussels from the seafood section at the local Super Walmart. -- posted by Jorja Jones

Moules Frites - French Bistro Style Mussels and Chips/Fries

Wed, 12 Dec 2007 17:33:15 -0500

I adore Moules Frites - for me it is quintessential French Bistro food at its best - plus I love tactile eating! You can treat yourself to Moules Frites anywhere in France, and for most of the year. I often make the "Moules" part at home - Moules Marinière - but now and then, for a treat I also do the "Frites" bit as well......chips or French fries! Serve these with lots of paper towels or napkins, and a glass of chilled white wine would be the perfect accompaniment! I bought special Moules Frites dishes, as shown in the photos, but a couple of bowls would be fine - and don't forget a large bowl for the shells. If you really want to be 100% authentic, it is de rigueur to serve the frites with mayonnaise my dear.....sinfully good! Vive la France! -- posted by French Tart

Ahoy There! Moules Marinières - French Sailor's Mussels

Mon, 22 Sep 2008 00:54:18 -0400

I adore moules, mussels, and this is the classic French recipe for them. Moules Marinières is also commonly known as Sailor's mussels or Mariner's mussels. The dish consists of delicately steamed fresh mussels in a white wine, garlic, parsley, butter, onion and cream sauce. Moules Marinières can be served as an appetising starter or even a light main meal. It is delicious served with fresh crusty bread or with frites (chips/fries). There is nothing more mouth-watering than a huge bowl of artistically presented mussels, yet the fun part is eating them. The best way is to use an empty mussel shell as the "spoon" in which to pick the remaining mussels from their shells and then eat them. It's a brilliant excuse to use your fingers to eat rather than the usual knife and for - very tactile! A traditional French recipe will use butter, however the butter may be substituted for a few tablespoons of olive oil for a healthier option - I sometimes use a mix of butter and olive oil I hope you find the step-by-step photos helpful, this recipe was used in the September 2008 Cooking School for the TOTM - hopefully, the photos will debunk the myth that mussels are hard to prepare and cook, NOT so! Bon Appétit! -- posted by French Tart
