What is a chef sauce ???

I have used guiness to cook mussels. Tried using it to steam clams as well, but not as good.

Great one... wow, some neat recipes, thanks!

I have one to add. Boil some Nathen's skinless hot dogs, with some poking by a fork, in the Guinness. Now just eat em. No bun... no nothin. I guess a little mustard wouldn't hurt. :~)

I just steamed the mussels using guiness as steaming liquid, throwing in a lot of garlic, shallots...here is a recipe I found on net...similar to what I have done, although I haven't always used the half & half...

These mussels, steamed in garlic and Guinness, are one of the pub's most popular starters.

2 pounds fresh mussels, scrubbed, debearded, and rinsed in cold water

1 shallot, minced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon minced fresh flat-leaf parsley, plus extra for garnish

1-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme

1/2 cup Guinness

1/2 cup half-and-half

2 tablespoons unsalted Kerrygold Irish butter

Lemon wedges for serving

French bread for serving 1. Put a stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat. When the pot is hot, add the mussels and remaining ingredients and cover immediately. (The mussels will make a sizzling sound.) Cook, stirring once or twice, for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the mussels open. Discard any that do not open.
2. To serve, divide the mussels among shallow bowls and ladle the broth over them. Sprinkle with parsley and serve with a wedge of lemon and slices of bread to sop up the juice.

A sauce used to keep the chef properly mentally lubricated ...
