Mussels

Method

Preparation

1

Clean the Mussels

Rinse the mussels under cold water, scrubbing the shells to remove any dirt or debris. Remove the beards if necessary.

2

Sauté the Garlic

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

3

Add the Mussels

Add the cleaned mussels to the pot and stir to coat them with the garlic oil.

4

Deglaze with Wine

Pour in the white wine and increase the heat to high. Cover the pot and let the mussels steam for about 5-7 minutes, or until they open.

5

Finish the Dish

Once the mussels are open, add the chopped parsley, vinegar, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

6

Serve

Serve the mussels in bowls with the broth, drizzling more olive oil and vinegar if desired.
