5 x Zeeland mussels

08/03/2015 by Alexia Leave a Comment

When I was invited for a workshop on ‘Zeeuwse Mosselen’ aka Zeeland Mussles, I was quick to reply. I am not the biggest fan of mussels but do appreciate a nice pot of them from time to time. I love when mussels are prepared in an non classical way and I was really curious about what chef Jo Bussels from Love Fish would prepare for us.

The nice thing about mussels is that you can now easily find them at the larger supermarkets and it is very easy to prepare them. You just must make sure to rince them well before using. My favorite ways to prepare them is with lemon oil, basil and tomatoes or with an Asian twist.

When I arrived a little later then foreseen, my fellow foodbloggers were getting the introduction about the great concept of Love Fish by chef Jo. I have written about this restaurant after it first opened and have heard a lot of comments since then. Some people really need to get used to the concept but once they get the hang of it they gladly return to this place for a quick lunch or a healthy dinner. And the good news is….soon there will be mussels on the menu in small appetizer portions so this will be a great way to try out different types of preparations.

The key is butter

Chef Jo proposed us the following types of preparations of mussels:

– with bacon, red oinion,(candied) tomato and basil

-with green apple, smoked eel and lemon zeste

– with green herbs coulis

-with fennel, vanilla and lemon balm

-with a tomato coulis, orange and olives

The base for great mussels is celery, red onion, a pinch of cayenne and butter. I would use dairy free butter or olive oil but real butter will give your mussels a much richer taste. Let this simmer and then you add the mussels and the rest of the ingredients according to the recipe.
