Mussel Sinigang Sour Soup As Made By Chef Tara Monsod Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• Make the gremolata:
• In a 3-quart saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers. Add the garlic and cook until it is light golden, then immediately remove the pot from the heat. Transfer the garlic mixture to a bowl and let it cool for 1 minute. Mix with the parsley and lemon zest. Set it aside.
• Make the sinigang:
• Pour the seafood stock into the same saucepan used to fry the garlic. Add the lemon juice and sugar and bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Add the onions and tomatoes. Cover the pan, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the onions are translucent and the tomatoes are mushy.
• Put the fish in a strainer or colander and dunk it into the simmering broth. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until opaque throughout. Be careful not to overcook it. Immediately transfer the fish to a plate and set it aside.
• Put the beans in the strainer and dunk it into the simmering broth. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the beans are tender but still vibrant green. Transfer the beans to a plate and set it aside.
• Put the chiles and water spinach in the strainer and dunk it into the simmering broth. Cook for about a minute, or until they are tender but still vibrant in color. Transfer the chiles and spinach to a plate and set it aside.
• While the broth continues to simmer, taste and add fish sauce and more lemon juice as needed. Distribute and arrange the fish, shellfish, and vegetables into each of four bowls.
• Remove the broth from the heat and ladle it into the bowls with the seafood and vegetables. Sprinkle each serving with the gremolata. Serve the soup piping hot, with rice or crusty bread.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pot over high heat and swirl to evenly coat. Add the onion, garlic, and jalapeño. Cook, stirring, until softened, 4 minutes.
• Add the cumin, coriander, and chili powder. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Add the tomatoes, season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until softened and their liquid is almost evaporated, 4 minutes.
• Pour in the beer and bring to a boil.
• Add the mussels, immediately cover the pot, and cook, occasionally shaking the pot, until all mussels are opened, 6 minutes.
• Sprinkle the mussels with the chopped cilantro leaves, then divide among 4 bowls.
• Garnish with whole cilantro leaves and serve the mussels while hot with lime wedges for squeezing and bread for soaking up the cooking broth.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a medium pot, combine the mussels, wine, water, lemon juice, bay leaf, and crab boil, and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat, and simmer until the mussels have opened, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and discard any unopened mussels. Strain the cooking liquid through a strainer lined with cheesecloth into a clean container. Remove the mussels from the shells and set aside. Discard the shells.
• In a large pot, cook the bacon over medium heat until just golden and starting to crisp, about 3 minutes. Add the onions and leeks, and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic, salt, and cayenne, and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the bay leaves and thyme, and stir well. Add the strained mussel cooking liquid, the potatoes, milk, and cream and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 12 minutes. Discard the bay leaf and thyme sprigs. Add the cooked mussels and simmer until warmed through. Remove from the heat and adjust the seasoning, to taste.
• Meanwhile, place the bread slices on a baking sheet and rub on both sides with the garlic cloves. Bake until light golden brown, turning once, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Ladle into soup bowls, garnish with the parsley, and serve with the garlic croutons.

Steps:

• Heat the canola oil in a large pan with a lid over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, ginger, and shallot and sweat until starting to soften, 2-3 minutes.
• Add the cherry tomatoes. Sauté until the tomatoes begin to pop and release some of their juices, 2-3 minutes.
• Add the mussels, serrano peppers, long red peppers, and Chinese long beans. Cook for 1 minute, then pour in the fish stock. Cover and steam until the mussels open, 2-3 minutes.
• Add the tamarind paste, fish sauce, and water spinach. Cook until the spinach is wilted, 2 minutes. Discard any mussels that have not opened.
• Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with the radish and scallion. Serve hot with jasmine rice.
• Enjoy!
