Mussels Recipe

Prepare the Mussels

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

Sauté Garlic

In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Add Wine and Capers

Pour in the white wine and add the capers. Bring to a gentle simmer.

Cook the Mussels

Add the cleaned mussels to the pot, cover with a lid, and cook for 5-7 minutes, shaking the pot occasionally, until the mussels have opened.

Season and Garnish

Remove the pot from heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
