Saturday, May 24th, 2008How do you eat mussels? As a child on holiday in Nantes, I was taught to eat them by breaking the shells apart, using one half to scoop out the flesh in the other, then to use the remnants to paint a Lautrecian masterpiece.
I don’t buy the noncy idea of using one full shell in a pincer movement like a crustacean Pacman, that is for Londoners. One area you and I probably agree on is that to dispense with the shells in the small waste bowl requires some imagination, some organisation, and demands some artistic endeavour.
Stumble It!
