Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Clean the Seafood

    Rinse the mussels and clams under cold running water, scrubbing the shells with a brush to remove any dirt or sand. Discard any that are open or damaged.

  2. 2

    Chop the Aromatics

    Mince the garlic cloves and roughly chop the fresh parsley, setting aside for later use.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté Garlic

    In a large pot or skillet, heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.

  2. 4

    Add Seafood and Liquids

    Add the cleaned mussels and clams to the pot, followed by the cup of white wine and a cup of water. Stir gently to combine.

  3. 5

    Season and Cook

    Sprinkle in the salt and black pepper. Cover the pot and let the seafood cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until all the mussels and clams have opened. Discard any that remain closed.

  4. 6

    Finish with Parsley

    Once cooked, remove from heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley over the seafood. Give it a gentle toss to incorporate.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve Warm

    Serve the mussels and clams in a large bowl, drizzled with the cooking liquid. Enjoy with crusty bread for dipping.
