Preparation

Flatbread

  1. Mix the flour, yeast, sugar, spices, and sesame seeds.
  2. Add the salt once the yeast is thoroughly mixed with the flour.
  3. Add lukewarm water and knead into a smooth dough.
  4. Let rise until the volume has doubled.
  5. Shape into a loaf or rolls.
  6. Bake on an oiled, hot griddle until golden brown.

Mussels on the plancha

  1. Rinse the mussels and leave them to stand in salt water for a while. Then drain them thoroughly.
  2. Heat the plancha as hot as possible.
  3. Place the mussels on top; they will quickly begin to open.
  4. Add the vinaigrette (vinegar, oil, paprika, garlic, shallot, and bell pepper).
  5. The heat and shock of the vinaigrette cause the mussels to open completely and absorb the flavors. (Tip: pull the flame from the firebox over the mussels for extra flavor.)
  6. Serve the mussels on the plancha immediately, together with the flatbread.
