Magick. Or let the dogs wash it. Waterless refers to cooking. I asked
they guy doing the presentation "How do you steam something, then?"

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

     Title: Cider-Steamed Mussels w/Applejack Cream
Categories: Seafood, Vegetables, Fruits, Dairy, Booze
     Yield: 4 Servings

     1 lg Onion; sliced thin
     1 c  Apple cider
    32    Mussels; cleaned
   1/4 c  Laird's Applejack
     2 c  Heavy cream
          White pepper & salt
   1/4 c  Minced fresh parsley leaves

 Perfect for fall, when apples and mussels are in
 abundance.

 In a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid, combine the
 onion, cider, and 1/2 cup water; bring to a boil over high
 heat. Add the mussels and cook them, covered, for 3-5
 minutes, or until they are opened. Transfer the mussels
 with a slotted spoon to a hated serving dish, discarding
 any unopened ones. Cover them with a hot, damp dishcloth
 to keep them from drying out.

 Add the AppleJack to the skillet and reduce the liquid to
 about 1/2 cup. Add the cream, a little at a time, bringing
 the liquid to a boil after each addition, and reduce this
 liquid until it measures about 3/4 cup. Add the white
 pepper and salt it to taste. Strain the sauce through a
 fine sieve over the mussels, and sprinkle the mixture with
 minced parsley.

 Yield: 4 servings
