Steamed Mussels with Beer

Lately videos from “The Icelandic Chef” have been appearing in the food video world. Set with a backdrop of the breathtaking coast of Iceland, his videos feature him collecting his own food wearing chunky wool, and preparing it outside of his scenic RV camping spot on the shore. Who is this vagabond culinary expert? Is he really a chef? Savory Tv had to know! It turns out his name is as exotic as his image, Volundur Snaer Volundarson, and he is otherwise known as “Chef Worly”. He was raised in northern Iceland, and is quite the seasoned chef indeed. He has also authored a book entitled “Delicious Iceland: Tales of Unique Northern Delicacies”, which the publisher describes as “a glorious culinary and cultural tour”. You can read more about Chef Worly and his award winning book on his professional site here, and visit his blog for original recipes here.

This video features the Icelandic Chef whipping up a simple but delicious looking recipe of steamed mussels with light beer, ginger, red onion, jalapeno, sweet red pepper, tomato, butter, cream, and thyme.
