It works well as a pretty expensive hor d'oeuvre. A mixture of bottled clam juice, doz mussels, garlic, and a handful of other ingredients are all it takes to make this recipe so scrumptious. It is a good option if you're following a gluten free, primal, and pescatarian diet. Overall, this recipe earns a rather bad spoonacular score of 25%.
