Default Mmmmm, Mussels

Jeez-Marie, I love these things.

Rope-grown PEI mussels $3.59 for 2 pounds this week.
Super-fresh: No DOAs either before or after cooking.

Steamed using 8 oz. cheap beer, 1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard, and two
cloves of garlic, smushed, plus a couple of Tbsp. chopped chives
to garnish. With chewy garlicky Italian bread and some vinegary
green salad.

I was in heaven. I may have to go back for more.

Couldn't eat them all, so the remainder will be whizzed
in a food processor with some cream cheese and more chives
and served atop a split baked potato at tomorrow night's
dinner. Might be some broccoli in there too.

I also strained the awesomely flavored cooking liquid and froze
it to use in some future seafood soup/chowder/rice dish.

(Always on the lookout for good mussel dishes.)

Sounds very very nice. I love mussels too. Recently at a restaurant in San Antonio, called Papadeaux,I had mussels and andouille sausage, steamed in a lemon , butter wine sauce. Also fresh baked bread to soak u all those good juices, they were fantastically good.!

I like mussels but cannot imagine putting them in a FP - doesn't matter
with what - and serving them on baked potatoes. You may have my share.

I once caught a freshwater mussel when fishing, it was like reeling in a rock.

So I did just that, plus some browned sauteed onions and a bit more garlic,
and spread it on top of a split baked potato. Well, it looked like brown
pasty goo on top of brown stringy stuff, but it was mighty tasty. :-) The
mussels' seafood flavor came through just fine.

Grilled broccoli spears with soy, sesame oil and sesame seeds on the side.

Good eats.

It has even been confirmed that George Bush (GHWB) denied presidents,
during and after his tenure in office, access to sensitive data, such
the the U.S. UFO files due to the fact they did not possess the proper
security clearances. President Carter wanted to access those files due
to his own experience of seeing a UFO but was denied access by the CIA.
To this day, GHWB exercises undue influence within the CIA as he made
sure he had loyal operatives at all levels, starting at the
directorship. Then again he made sure he had damaging information on
many key individuals, all else failing he “ordered their
neutralization,” former CIA Director William Colby, being a notable
example. The official finding was suicide.

He is known, by many government insiders, to be an openingly unabashed
(doesn’t hide it among friends) pedophile, specifically referring to the
Franklin Community Credit Union scandal in the 1980s which was a major
national scandal that was covered-up by White House officials during the
time GHWB was vice president to Reagan and later.

He is also a practicing satanist by many accounts (now very popular
among the elite with their hand signs and T.V shows with satanic symbols
and themes – Beyonce, one among many); a coward (during World War II);
authorized the assassinations of democratically elected foreign leaders,
as well as American citizens – most notably Ross Perot who ran against
him as president – and used the CIA as a front for drug smuggling into
the United States using military transport aircraft and ships, a
practice that started with the Iran/Contra Scandal and later blossomed
as a major source of black operations funding outside the congressional
budget appropriations process where Congress controls the purse.
