Mussels Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

1

Prepare the Mussels

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

2

Sauté the Fennel

In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced fennel and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened.

3

Add Wine and Herbs

Pour in the white wine, add the parsley and thyme, and bring the mixture to a simmer.

4

Cook the Mussels

Add the prepared mussels to the pot, cover, and let steam for 5-7 minutes until the mussels open up. Discard any mussels that do not open.

5

Finish with Lemon

Stir in the lemon juice and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

6

Serve

Serve the mussels hot with slices of ciabatta bread for dipping in the broth.
