Has James May ruined this classic French dish?
James May is back in the kitchen and this week he's experimenting with the classic French dish: Moules Mariniere. Will adding gin improve or ruin it?

The question you should ask yourself when buying a sea dish: Do you want it to taste like the sea, or like a cow?

Someone will make a dish out of sea cows for people who don't want to answer that question.

In general, if something can taste like a cow, it generally should.

I poached some salmon in white wine not long ago, and my realization was that... Yes, I actually don't like the fishy sea taste which is why I like it better poached in wine.

True, he was my least favourite when I was younger but since he started doing the food tribe stuff he quickly became my favourite top gear member
I wouldn't mind seeing a seafood paella with gin - it should bring out the different fish flavours and balance the rice / saffron.

Mussels (and shellfish in general) are something a lot of people detest. Lucy, who seems to detest most edibles, likes them. Go figure.

James, you should have called it "Moules Maginot". Best served with pommes Siegfried!

I substituted red wine with James Gin when making a creamy mushroom sauce to top roasted asparagus. 10/10 would highly recommend.
