EAT THIS IMMEDIATELY: Sizzling mussels at M�m�

Filed Under: Eat This Immediately

Coming across this short video of our dude David Katz whipping up his now-famed sizzling mussels reminded me just how much I dig this starter. The M�m� chef/owner pops the little guys out of their shells and lightly dusts them in Wondra flour before saut�eing in a pan. As you can see in the clip, the seasoning sesh is kept short and sweet savory � salt, pepper, thyme, parsley, lemon, olive oil � before the whole deal is transferred into a incredibly hot cast-iron skillet.

You will start shoveling these things into your mouth the second that skillet is dropped on your table. You may burn a temporary hole in your tongue. You will not care.

Eat this immediately.
