They are almost out of season, so it’s probably one of the last times you can buy them. I never had them before from the shell and thought to myself I shouldn’t be calling myself Dutch then. It’s just about the only seafood next to herring.
In any case, I had washed the mussels too soon and they started popping before I put them in the pan. *_* Ack! Something I know for next time, only do that very last minute. They wanted to hop into the pan before it was ready. They tasted awesome :D I could eat 1.5 kilograms of these things on my own.
The tator is from the oven and has a kind of yoghurt / avocado sauce. I heart avocado’s ♥.
Brown sugar goes really well with a vanilla rice desert.
