[@adan4153]

These muscles were absolutely amazing, how come this video doesn’t have much attention

[@SipandFeast]

Thank you! None of my vids have much attention. Hopefully that changes at some point lol.

[@evamarklund4834]

Well, stop it! 😉
IMO, there may be some mental barrier for those of us who have never cooked mussels or clams.
Your Channel and everything about it, besides the recipes! is awesome!!
Wish you much success in 23 👍

[@AshleyEllabel]

Do you use salted butter or unsalted butter? Thanks ;)

[@SipandFeast]

Hey there. I always cook with unsalted butter, but I should have specified.

[@AshleyEllabel]

@@SipandFeast thanks for your prompt reply!! I m going to try this on the coming weekends! Thanks a lot ;)

[@ilgamsh632]

Is there a substitute for vermouth?

[@SipandFeast]

You could use any dry white wine. Pinot grigio, sauvignon blanc, and chardonnay all work well for this recipe.

[@gsvoffice8726]

Can you substitute dried tarragon? If so, what amount?

[@SipandFeast]

You should always use less dried than fresh. I would go easy at first, taste test, add more, etc until you get it to your liking.

[@karenkertley4024]

I would of seasoned the sauce before I put the mussels in the bath. Just sayin
