This is a very addicting dish - simple, yet elegant. The enoki mushrooms add a great texture to the amazing flavor of mussels covered in a spicy creamy sauce.

Preparation method

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F

Blanch mussels (still in shell) in boiling water for 2 min and drain.

Extract mussels from their shells. Rinse and drain well using a your hands to squeeze as much excess water from mussels.

Reserve shells and scrub thoroughly.

Cut each mussel into small pieces (about 4-6 pieces each)

Prepare the filling by mixing, in a mixing bowl, mussels, imitation crab, 1/2 of the masago, 1/2 of the chili garlic sauce, and sesame oil.

Spread the enoki mushrooms over the insides of the shells.

Layer the filling over the mushrooms and arrange on a foil-lined baking sheet.

Bake for 7-10 minutes then remove from oven.

11.

Top with Tsume sweet sauce, masago, and green onions immediately before serving.

Alternate Serving Idea: This dish can also be prepared and served as a plate. Instead of cooking individually, place all ingredients on one serving medium such as an oven-proof plate. An inverted portabella mushroom with the stem removed works excellent as well!
