Mussels Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mussels

    Rinse the baby black mussels under cold water, scrubbing the shells to remove any debris. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.

  2. 2

    Sauté Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped shallots, sautéing until they are soft and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Wine and Mussels

    Pour in the red or white wine and bring to a simmer. Add the prepared mussels and cover the pot. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, shaking the pot occasionally, until the mussels have opened.

  4. 4

    Finish and Serve

    Once the mussels are opened, stir in the butter, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Serve immediately with crusty bread for dipping.
