Linguine with mussels and lemon Linguine with mussels and lemon
A few nights ago, I came across an old vid of Jamie Oliver on YouTube, making a trio of quick pastas. One was a super-simple lemon pasta, made only with lemon, olive oil, and parm. I made up my mind pretty quickly that I wanted to try it. However, as the time to do so came around, it occured to me I could jazz it up, mainly by incorporating some half-shell mussels I had in the fridge (I was saving them for gumbo). The end result was one part Jamie's recipe, minus the parm (because my imaginary Italian nonna won't let me combine seafood and cheese in a pasta dish), and another part mussels cooked vongole-ish style. The fusion was a perfect marriage of lemon, seafood, noodles, and deliciousness.

Spicy scallop linguine Spicy scallop linguine
Our local supermarket's been putting scallops on sale a lot lately, and as a result, I'm cooking with them a lot more. This is okay, because I love 'em. Especially in this super-quick, super-delicious pasta. Quick tip: if using frozen scallops, first soak them in milk for 30 minutes to remove any fishy smell. Just be sure to rinse them thoroughly afterward. -
