- 12 Creuse or Grevelingen oysters from Prins & Dingemanse
- 1 clove of garlic
- 4 egg yolks
- 1 shallot, finely chopped
- 800 ml champagne

instructions
Open the oysters and discard the liquid. Take a small pan and add the egg yolks and the champagne. Whisk the mixture until frothy/fluffy over low heat until you get a sabayon that doesn't collapse. Finely chop the shallot and press the garlic. Wash the spinach and drain it in a colander. Now sauté the shallot and garlic in the pan and stew the spinach with the butter. Now let the stewed spinach drain on a kitchen towel or paper and press out the remaining liquid. Put a small amount of spinach in the oyster and place the frothy sabayon next to the spinach.

Facts about Prince
How do I cook my mussels?
Put the vegetables together with a splash of wine or beer in a large pot. Place the mussels on top. Sprinkle with pepper and bring to a boil with the lid closed. Shake the mussels during cooking. When the shells are all open after about 5-8 minutes, the mussels are cooked. Serve them with baguette or fries and sauces of your choice. Check the traditional recipe for more information.
Can you freeze fresh mussels?
Fresh mussels in the shell should never be frozen. However, if you have cooked the mussels and can't eat them all, you can freeze the mussel meat after removing it from the shell. You can then add the mussels to soup or salad later, or fry them up nicely with some onion.
