Mussels

Method

Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Mussels

Rinse the mussels under cold water and scrub the shells to remove any dirt or debris. Remove the beards (the hairy strands) from the mussels.

2

Sauté Aromatics

In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and diced shallots, and sauté until soft and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.

3

Add Wine and Mussels

Pour in the white wine and bring the mixture to a simmer. Add the cleaned mussels to the pot and cover with a lid.

4

Steam the Mussels

Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels have opened. Discard any mussels that remain closed.

5

Finish the Dish

Stir in the chopped parsley, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Serve immediately in bowls with some of the cooking liquid.
