Green Mussels With Mustard And Roasted Pepper Mayonnaise Recipes

Steps:

• Cook french fries according to package instructions and keep warm in oven if necessary.
• Meanwhile, cut onion into very thin slices with slicer, then cook with garlic and a pinch of salt in butter in a wide heavy medium pot over medium-high heat, covered, stirring occasionally, until pale golden.
• While onion cooks, whisk together mustard and water until smooth, then whisk in mayonnaise and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Add wine to onion and briskly simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until onion is almost tender, about 5 minutes. Add mussels and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until mussels just open wide, 4 to 6 minutes, checking frequently after 4 minutes and transferring as cooked to a bowl. (Discard any mussels that remain unopened.) Stir parsley into cooking liquid and season with salt. Pour liquid over mussels, then serve with fries and mustard mayonnaise.

Steps:

• For the mayonnaise, soak the saffron in 1 tablespoon of hot water in a small bowl for 5 minutes. Whisk in the mayonnaise, lemon zest, lemon juice, mustard, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and refrigerate until ready to use.
• For the mussels, combine the fleur de sel and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and set aside. Heat a large, dry (12-inch) cast iron skillet over high heat for 4 to 5 minutes, until very hot. Add the mussels in a single layer and cook them for one minute, until they start to open. Add the wine and continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes, until the mussels are fully opened and just cooked. (Discard any that don't open.) Off the heat, sprinkle the mussels generously with the salt and pepper mixture. Serve hot from the skillet with individual bowls of saffron mayonnaise for dipping.

Steps:

• For the mussels: Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until soft. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the poblano puree and clam broth and cook until reduced by half, stirring occasionally. Add the coconut milk and honey and cook until reduced by half. Transfer the mixture to a blender (rinse out the pan) add the spinach, salt and pepper, to taste, and blend until smooth. Place the pan back on the stove over high heat. Add the wine to the pot, bring to a boil and reduce by half. Add the green chile broth and bring to a boil. Stir in the mussels, cover the pot and cook until the mussels open, discarding any that do not, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the butter and parsley and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Spoon into bowls, garnish with more parsley, if desired, and serve with bread on the side.
• For the French Fries: Cut the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick slices then cut each slice into 1/4-inc thick fries. Place the fries in a large bowl of cold water. Heat the oil in a large, straight-sided skillet to 325 degrees F. Drain fries in batches on paper towels. Fry each batch for 3 to 4 minutes until a pale blonde color and remove to a sheet pan lined with paper towels. Increase the heat of the oil to 375 degrees F and fry the potatoes again, in batches, until golden brown. Remove to a sheet pan lined with paper towels and season liberally with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• For the Aioli: Combine the mayonnaise, pepper, chipotle, salt and pepper in a food processor and process until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve the fries with the aioli alongside the mussels.

Steps:

• Scrub the mussels, and use a paring knife to remove any beards that protrude from the shells. Place the mussels in a large bowl of very cold water to soak briefly.
• In a large kettle, bring the wine to a boil and add the thyme sprigs. Drain the mussels and add them to the kettle. Cover and cook, stirring once or twice, until they open, about 5 minutes. (Discard any that do not open.) Set aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, in the container of a blender, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard powder and roasted pepper. Blend until smooth. Scrape into a bowl, season to taste with salt and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Break the mussel shells apart, discarding the tops and leaving the meat attached to the bottoms. Divide among 6 plates and top each mussel with 1/2 teaspoon of the mustard sauce. Sprinkle each with a pinch of thyme leaves and serve.

Steps:

• Discard any mussels with broken shells. Soak mussels in cold water for 15 minutes. Scrub shells with a stiff brush and remove "beard" by giving it a firm tug. Rinse well and refrigerate until needed.
• Combine wine, water, lemon juice, shallots, peppercorns, salt, and bouquet garni in a large stockpot with a tight-fitting lid. Bring to a boil; then simmer over low heat for 15 minutes.
• Add mussels and cover. Increase heat to medium and cook, shaking occasionally, until the mussels open, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Remove mussels from broth and cool both separately. Discard any shells that haven't opened, as well as the half shell to which mussel isn't attached. When cool, put mussels back into broth, cover, and chill until ready to serve. This can be done 1 to 2 days before serving.
• Roast pepper over gas flame or under broiler until blackened. Place in a paper bag to cool. Peel and seed pepper; cut in 1/2-inch-wide strips, then into diamonds.
• Cut mussels from shells with a paring knife. Pour a little Remoulade Sauce in each shell and garnish with chopped parsley and a red-pepper diamond. Pass on a tray with toothpicks or wooden forks.

Steps:

• Heat a pot over high heat and add the mustard greens, with the water clinging to the leaves plus 1/4 cup additional water.
• Season with about 1/4 teaspoon of salt, pepper to taste, garlic, and red pepper flakes; cover.
• Once the greens start to reduce, lower the heat to medium and cook until they are tender, about 7 minutes.
• Drain and squeeze water out of the greens and put them in a bowl; season with additional salt, if desired, pepper sauce or vinegar to taste.
• Build your panini by covering one slice of bread with cheese, the greens, and pepper strips; spread the top slice with Dijon mustard and cover.
• Brush the outside of the sandwich liberally with olive oil.
• Cook in a panini maker or a heavy skillet until both sides of the bread are crispy and the cheese has melted (I use a cast iron skillet with another cast iron skillet on top of the sandwich to weight it, then flip.

Steps:

• Cook the fries according to package instructions and keep warm in the oven if necessary.
• Meanwhile, cut the onion into very thin slices with the slicer, then cook with garlic and a pinch of salt in the butter in a wide heavy medium pot over medium-high heat, covered, stirring occasionally, until pale golden.
• While the onion cooks, whisk together the mustard and water until smooth, then whisk in the mayonnaise and about 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Add the wine to the onion and briskly simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until the onion is almost tender, about 5 minutes. Add the mussels and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until mussels are just open wide, 4 to 6 minutes, checking frequently after 4 minutes and transferring as cooked to a bowl. (Discard any mussels that remain unopened.)
• Stir the parsley into the cooking liquid and season with salt. Pour liquid over mussels, then serve with fries and mustard mayonnaise.
• COOK'S NOTE
• This RECIPE can be doubled in an 8-quart heavy pot.

Steps:

• Rinse mussels under cold running water. If you see hairy clumps around the shell (called beards), use a sharp knife or your fingers to pull them off, then scrub shells well with a vegetable brush.
• In a soup pot with a tight-fitting cover, heat olive oil, then add thyme, garlic, shallots and a pinch of salt and pepper. Sauté until shallots and garlic are softened, 3 minutes. Pour in ale and bring to a simmer. Add mussels and cover pot. Let mussels steam, stirring once or twice, until they open, 5 to 10 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer mussels to bowls. Discard any that have not opened.
• Add butter, herbs and mustard to pan juices and bring to a boil. Whisk until butter melts, then taste and correct seasonings (add more butter if liquid tastes bitter). Pour over mussels and serve with bread for sopping up juices.
