Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mussels

    Rinse the mussels under cold water and remove any beards. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chorizo

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Garlic and Wine

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Add Mussels

    Add the cleaned mussels and whole grain mustard to the pot. Cover and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels have opened.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Sprinkle with fresh parsley, serve with lemon wedges on the side, and enjoy with grilled focaccia.
