Diet Mussel Soup
The starting point for this recipe is the Basic Aphrodisiac
Mussels. Actually, the dish was originally not developed
as an aphrodisiac but for dietary purposes. Because of
intestinal cancer, Johan was on a very restricted diet. This
dish turned out to be quite acceptable to his digestion,
while at the same time tasting "just like gourmet
restaurant food", according to Anne.
Proceed as follows:
Ingredients:
1
. Bring the bouillon to a boil.
·
100 g of cooked and
deshelled mussels (see the
basic recipe)
500 ml (2 cups) of
saffron-spiced mussel
bouillon (see the basic
recipe)
100 g rice vermicelli,
broken down into short
pieces
2. Add the rice vermicelli pieces and cook at a low
heat for 3 minutes. Some varieties of vermicelli
might require a slightly shorter or longer cooking
time.
·
3. Add the mussels and heat (but do not boil) for a
minute or two.
4. Optional improvement: Before serving, add two
tablespoons of cognac to the soup.
·
A dry white wine with a lot of taste goes nicely with the
soup. However, even a light Riesling can be appropriate.
