Mussels in Irish cider – Redzen2
Mussels cooked in cider, cream and shallots. That’s all it takes to make us salivate! This dish, called “Mussels in Irish Cider” has the advantage of bringing together 3 great Irish specialities: its mussels, its local potatoes turned into chips and of course its inimitable cider!
Irish people enjoy this dish at home, like at the Pub or in a seafood restaurant. Very economical, its preparation does not exceed 10€ at home, and can be tasted in establishments for 10/12€.
The whole thing is obviously accompanied by a pint of cider, and some homemade “French fries” to enhance the flavours of the dish! A treat that combines sweet and savoury flavours! A clever mix between the acidity of the apple and its sugar which contrasts marvellously with the sweetness and generosity of the mussel flesh!
In short, a good little dish from behind the bundles, to be tasted in the Irish style, preferably in an establishment facing the sea for more cachet!
