Oh, yum, this is a really good idea.

It is really not rocket science. The fucking Belgians do it.


Do you tend to over-react to things?

Crusty bread is a good idea. I also like to slice zucchini and squash with the julienne blade of a mandoline and then cook it briefly in the mussls liquid to make a veggie spaghetti as a base for the dish. Of course, actual spaghetti could also be a base.

I steam them with garlic, white wine, parsley and olive oil.

Then I serve them over pasta, crusty bread and salad.

So easy, fast, yummy.

Sometimes I skip the bread if I do Brie and bread to start.

I presume OP already knows if people will like and/or are allergic to them...

People have mussels as a main all the time. The thing is to make an amazing broth, because the fun comes from sopping the bread in it.

Has anyone served steamed mussels as a main course? If so, with what sides? I'm not great at making fries at home but was thinking crusty bread and a salad. Will that fill everyone up though?
