Chipotle Mussels with Orange Mayonnaise
4 pounds of
fresh mussels, washed about 50
3 tablespoons of garlic, thinly sliced
Zest Of 2 Oranges; *
4 tablespoons of
chipotle chiles; canned, **
4 cups of water; ***
3 tablespoons of
olive oil
4 tablespoons of fresh Orange Juice
12 Sprigs Of Cilantro
ORANGE MAYONNAISE
1
egg yolk; Extra Large, ****
1 cup of Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon of
orange zest; very fine chop
4 tablespoon of fresh Orange Juice
1 tablespoon of
fresh Lime Juice
2 tablespoons of cilantro, finely chopped
* Cut the zest from the oranges in very long strips. ** Puree the canned chiles. *** You can also use light fish broth in place of the water. **** The egg yolk should be at room temperature. To prepare the mussels, place in a large pot together with the garlic, orange zest, chipotle, and water. Cover, bring to a boil and steam for 4 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and let sit for 5 minutes; mussels should then be open. Remove the mussels and keep covered in a warm place. Reduce the liquid by half and add the oil and orange juice. Divide the mussels on the half-shell evenly between soup plates and add the broth. Garnish each bowl with 1 Tbls of Orange Mayonnaise and 3 sprigs of cilantro. ORANGE MAYONNAISE: Beat the egg yolk in a glass or stainless steel bowl until light and lemon colored. Transfer to a blender and add the oil drop by drop fro the first 1/4 of a cup, then the remainder in a slow steady stream, mixing at high speed until emulsified. Add the other sauce ingredients and blend together. Let sit for at least 1 hour to allow the orange flavor to develop.
