People laugh at me when I tell them that my fast food is mussels! I used to make them all the time for me and the kids. Now, well, let often. I think I'll be making some next month when the beau comes up. This sounds like a delicious recipe! I'm in to try it!
Either one works, Dale. Although, if you are making them for your beau, consider the brothy one where you dip the bread into the mussels jus. That one is decadent!
I usually end up making two flavours... I've introduced him to my version of Thai (that ends up in a soup the next day) and blue cheese... but I'm always trying new flavours. I like the idea of a pasta (at least for half of the pack!)
Oh, I thought I had missed you linking to them ;-) I am quite familiar with these. We used to have mussels every other week! Now... I have a hankering for them... hmmm... maybe I'll get myself a small pack :)
I hadn't linked them because I didn't think of it. Ah, the pursuit of perfection yet never quite making it. :D Have you seen the mussels with Thai curry and lemongrass? Is that the one you make? It's fantastic.
It is the one I make. Sooooo good. Our favourite. Plus, like I mentioned, the leftover broth gets turned into a soup with vermicelli rice noodles, shrimps and some shredded veg. Mmm.

Brothy one? Did I miss something?

The brothy one is the typical restaurant style that comes either as a lemon butter sauce (https://www.withablast.net/mussels-in-lemon-garlic-butter-sauce/) or white wine sauce (https://www.sipandfeast.com/mussels-white-wine-sauce/.) These are served with lots of crusty French baguettes. I've seen lots of variations, so no need to limit yourself to just the above two.
