Method

Cooking Instructions

Clean the Mussels

Rinse the fresh mussels under cold water to remove any sand or debris. Use a scrub brush if necessary. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.

Prepare the Aromatics

In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.

Add the Wine and Seasoning

Pour in the white wine and add salt and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

Steam the Mussels

Add the cleaned mussels to the pot and cover it with a lid. Steam the mussels for about 5-7 minutes, or until they have opened up completely. Discard any mussels that remain closed.

Garnish and Serve

Once cooked, remove the pot from heat. Stir in the chopped parsley and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve the mussels hot, drizzled with the broth.
