CURRIED MUSSELS
This delicious recipe is from my "Eve" cookbook. Eve Aronoff used to have a fabulous restaurant in Ann Arbor where we used to enjoy these mussels. We've made them several times at home. The curry cream recipe actually makes a quart, for which only 1 1/2 cups is used in this recipe. I have posted a recipe that also uses a batch of the curry cream for a torn seafood pasta. DH and I usually scale up the ingredients to make a batch and a half of curry cream, and then we enjoy both recipes.

Steps:
- For the Cream:.
- Heat oil and butter in large saucepan and saute onions, ginger, garlic and jalapenos for about 3 minutes.
- Season with spices and salt and pepper.
- Add cream, simmer to reduce until sauce thickens, but is still silky and coats the back of a spoon, about 30-40 minutes.
- Remove from heat, add sriracha, lime juice, and brown sugar and cheese.
- Adjust seasonings generously to taste.
- For the Mussels:.
- Place mussels in ice bath and stir. Discard mussels that do not close up tightly. Drain well.
- Saute garlic, shallots, salt, pepper, and a few sprigs of thyme in olive oil in large, shallow, non-reactive pot.
- Add mussels, shake to combine with garlic and shallots, add the white wine, thyme sprigs, and season with Kosher salt and black pepper.
- Cover and steam for about 3 minutes.
- Pour off half of liquid (discard or save for other use) and add Curry Cream.
- Simmer covered until mussels are completely open--shaking the pan occasionally. Discard any mussels that do not open.
- Adjust seasonings generously to taste.
- Finish with topped fresh herbs and serve with crusty bread for sopping.
