Method

Cooking Instructions

Prepare the Mussels

Rinse the mussels under cold water, scrubbing the shells if necessary. Remove any beards.

Sauté the Fennel and Garlic

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced fennel and minced garlic, sautéing until the fennel is soft, about 5 minutes.

Add Wine and Mussels

Pour in the Chablis wine and bring to a simmer. Add the cleaned mussels and cover the pot. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels have opened.

Finish with Parsley and Seasoning

Once the mussels are cooked, stir in the chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper to taste. Discard any mussels that did not open.

Prepare the Garlic Bread Points

Slice the crusty bread and toast it. Optionally, rub with a garlic clove for extra flavor.

Serve

Serve the mussels in a bowl with the broth and a side of garlic bread points for dipping.
