Even if I'd never had a bad mussel, I don't want to pick the meat out of shells from a bowl of soup. It sounds rather messy to me. If I were going to make bouillabaisse (which I'm not, but thanks for posting the link, sf!) I certainly wouldn't make it for *one*. :) Jill |

Then why would you order bouillabaisse... it's served in a large bowl but it's essentially a watery fish broth... and normal folks don't eat the bivalve shells (those shells would certainly irritate uranus). Bouillabaisse is one of the lowest calorie foods on a restaurant menu... and restaurants don't typically serve a very large portion anyway, at most seafood eaterys it's primarilly served as an appetizer (soup course), few order it as an entree. >Yes! I always say that I don't like "big food", meaning a large portion on >my plate. I don't like seeing it on other people's plates either so prefer >not to dine at places that do that. So how did you get to be taller lying down than standing... you got to weigh over 300 pounds by eating baby portions, eh? Miss Piggy ---> https://myspace.com/juliebove Yoose all are such BSers.. there's not an honest cell in your obeastie bodies. I seriously doubt any of yoose has ever eaten bouillabaisse, I'm certain none of you three tons of fun has ever prepared it... yoose don't even have a clue what it is, obviously, or yoose all wouldn't be bitching how it's too much food. Bouillabaisse is typically brought to table in a large tureen and portions ladled into normal sized bowls... no one eats directly from the tureen unless you're a big fat sow. And no eatery prepares bouliiabaisse for one... if you order it for one they bring a normal sized bowl, a single serving. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bouillabaisse http://www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/Bouillabaisse http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/fo...abaisse-238411 http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/e...ipe/index.html A typical portion: http://www.steamykitchen.com/wp-cont...ecipe-9350.jpg The more I read your posts the more I believe yoose BSers dine at the drive thru... you've never eaten bouillabaisse, I've never seen it served for one with a dozen mussels... maybe yer tawkin mussels marinara, a very different dish... and still a couple dozen mussels in tomato sauce on its own is not a very filling dish, most folks consume a half loaf of eyetalian bread with it for sopping and it almost always arrives with a side of ****ghetti. I don't think any of yoose has ever been to a REAL seafood restaurant. Jill lives on an island in the Atlantic yet to date has never mentioned eating seafood, not at home, not at her Kaiser Klub... something about that picture is very wrong. I've lived most of my life within walking distance of the sea, and have eaten at countless seafood restaurants. Many don't serve bouillabaisse because it's not something prepared by the single portion, it doesn't store well, and it's not a very popular dish because a lot of people don't like fish broth, I love it but many don't. It's not a dish I would prepare just for one or two, it's best to have bouillabaisse at a good seafood restaurant... and it doesn't pay to prepare it with frozen seafood, blech! |

So then you've never actually eaten mussels... eating mussels is no more messy than eating shrimp or chicken... in fact eating mussles is not messy at all, the shells pop open and the meat practically falls out on its own... you don't need to touch them other than with your fork... you do use silverware? |

I don't eat mussels, but Ron used to order them at this place that's long gone now. Came in a big bowl. He'd eat the mussels and I'd have bread dipped in the sherry garlic sauce. Wasn't messy though it might sound that way. Recently he bought a reasonable substitute for that dish at Costco. Not bad at all. Not as good as at that restaurant but he said he liked the mussels. nancy |

Trattoria Tiramisu. Excellent food! But it was a pasta dish. Served the way you describe, they're a little messy but not the same as I picture with bouillabaisse. I used to buy frozen mussels in a garlic-butter sauce at Publix. Just saying, I don't usually plan on picking up food with my fingers from a bowl of hot soup. ;) > Wasn't messy though it might sound that way. > I noticed the last time I there Publix (grocery store) still sells that brand of frozen mussels in garlic sauce. The directions always have the notation: if they're already opened before cooking, discard them. I did, but still managed to get a bad one once.

I had it a couple times, and it was delicious every time. This one sounds more like a mussel dish than bouillabaisse. They are usually a combination of bits and pieces of different types of fish and shell fish, and might have a couple clams and a couple mussels, not just a whole lot of mussels. |

Or just twirl a smaller amount on the fork. :) As for "discard plates" for mussel shells, crab claws, shrimp shells... yes, of course there are discard plates. This far south some places serve 'Frogmore Stew' which is a seafood boil. The liquid is discarded. They have buckets for the seafood shells. Jill |

These food writers kill me. Oh, sure, everyone can just whip to their nearest clam and mussel monger and have this on the table in a trice. I notice the article did call it a 'mock' bouillabaisse. The real deal usually calls for a lot of other denizens of the sea - and on the menu of a good resto, it's often THE highest price entree.
It looks like a big meal in the photo, but if one were to assemble all the edible parts, I wonder if it'd fill a teacup. vd.On Saturday, December 14, 2013 1:09:00 PM UTC-5, sf wrote: > It's a single serving - or so they claim! :) > > http://leitesculinaria.com/47859/rec...llabaisse.html > > > > -- > > Food is an important part of a balanced diet. |
