Cannabis Campbell, in America shellfish is usually used to denote the whole group of marine animals with a shell like shrimp, scallops, crabs, lobsters, clams, oysters, and mussels. Most mussel recipes involve steaming them in a pot with white wine, garlic, shallots, lemon, and some herbs. Foodnetwork's website has some good recipes and here is a basic recipe from Bonefish Grill, which has these as an appetizer and I love it, soak up the sauce with some of their bread, yummy yummy.
4 cups mussels
Steam mussels in skillet over high heat until shells open up
Combine the following ingredients to taste:
Chopped red onion
Chopped tomatoes
Kosher salt
Minced garlic
Basil cut in strips
Annissette (licorice-flavored cooking liquor)
Lemon butter sauce
Combine all ingredients to create a sauce, pour over mussels in large bowl.
never had muscles... i do love lobster, shrimp, crawfish and clams tho :p i'm suprised by how many people hate clams
I just had conks ....wtf is that I know it coms froma shell and its like a huge snale but what is it and it tasted fish and garlicy realy chewy I dint like it but then Im in the desert eating a conk
^^^Well that's pretty much it, snail of the sea. I love conch fritters as many restaurants here in Florida sell them.

you know i never thought i'd ever consider trying snails... as i think of them like bugs...
but, if i ever get the chance i'll try 'em.. i love clams..
Yeah theres no point being afraid of anything I would try "anything" once.. ive tried ostrich before and that was quite good and for some reason I tried pigeon lol It looked like crap kind of like mussles do but it tastes a lot nicer than I expected it sort of tasted like chicken a bit.
One of few things I would be wary about trying though is things like cows tongue or liver or frog legs :wtf:, apparently cows tongue is really nice but seeing all the taste buds and everything and the thought of it being a tongue really puts me off.
I live in South Florida so we get shellfish all year round. I love it all! For some great recipes check out the Food Network site or Cooks.com
i'll try frog legs if i get the chance... cow tounge is a hell no.. i just can't get my head around the idea of eating tounge...Quote:
