Costco started to carry PEI mussels at our location. Jenn and I have bought them a few times now. Because they only come in a 3 kg container, we usually have them for dinner and not just as an app. Last time I was in Costco getting mussels some one saw me with the mussels and was like wow how do you cook those. I thought it was kind of funny because they are literally one of the easiest thinks to cook. I typically like to fry a clove of minced garlic and shallot in some olive oil with a diced up chili. Then after 3 or 4 minutes add a cup of dry white wine and a splash of rice vinegar. Then through in about a pound and a half of mussels in the pot then crank the heat up and let them steam for 5 minutes until they open. Sprinkle some fresh parsley on top for garnish.
Bobby Flay had a "Moules Frites"(mussel and fries) throw down recently and he lost. The guy he lost to did a bacon and blue cheese mussel recipe. I thought it was quite a weird combo so Jenn and I thought we better try it out. Well this guy knows what he is doing because they were amazing.
