* Exported from MasterCook * Mussels in Green Sauce Recipe By : Joanne van Roden
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Fareshare Chat 052 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ -------------------------------- 4 pounds mussels -- scrubbed & debearded
1/2 cup parsley (or more) -- chopped
6 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic -- crushed or minced
1/2 teaspoon salt Heat olive oil in a large pot. Add parsley, garlic, and salt. Simmer 2 - 3
minutes. Add mussels, cover and cook 5- 10 minutes; or until shells open.
Serve (shells and all) in sauce, poured over spaghetti. TIP : Mussels are delicious. They're inexpensive, probably because of the
time involved in cleaning them -- it's worth it! Scrub them well under
running water, and scrape off their beards with a knife. Discard any mussel
that doesn't close when handled. Art's notes: We love fresh mussels over pasta. Most of the time, however,
we add tomatoes to the sauce. You should also consider using a mixture of
fresh parsley, basil and/or cilantro in this dish. We would also add black
pepper to the dish. When eating mussels in the shell, use the separated
shells as an implement to separate the other mussels from their shells. Principal recipe from Joanne van Roden's Cookbook "Favorite Seafood Recipes

* Exported from MasterCook * Quick Shrimp and Mushrooms Recipe By : Joanne van Roden
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Fareshare Chat 052 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 1/2 pounds medium shrimp -- shelled and deveined
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons sherry
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons oil
4 stalks celery (and leaves) -- sliced
3 scallions (and green tops) -- sliced
1/2 pound mushrooms -- sliced Put shrimp in a bowl. Combine soy sauce, sherry, and salt. Pour over shrimp
and mix through. Let sit 15 minutes or longer. Heat a frying pan. Add oil.
Add celery and scallions and stir over high heat for 3 minutes. Add mush-
rooms and shrimp. Stir and cook until shrimp turn pink; about 3 - 5 minutes. TIP : When preparing shrimp, always time the meal so they can be served as
soon as they are finished cooking. Many times, I cook them while we are
eating our salads or other first courses. This ensures they will be hot,
juicy and tasty. We would add garlic to this recipe, of course. Principal recipe from Joanne van Roden's Cookbook "Favorite Seafood Recipes
of the Eastern Shore" 1980 Formatted in MasterCook by Art Guyer Discussion : [] Art, could you use frozen shrimp in that and just cook until heated
through?
[Art] Sure, but the marinating might not take. You may have to adjust the
cooking part of the recipe to pick up the flavors.
[] Toss the garlic into the pan when the shrimp go in. Contributed to the FareShare IRC Chat, 31 March 1999, by Art. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Remove sauted crabs to a baking pan and put in the oven to keep warm until

in cracker meal and fried as above or in a deep fryer. NOTES : Small crabs make excellent appetizers. Principal recipe from Joanne van Roden's Cookbook "Favorite Seafood Recipes
