    Rinse the mussels under cold running water to remove any dirt or sand. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.

    Add Wine and Mussels

    Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer. Add the cleaned mussels to the pot and cover with a lid.

  4. 4

    Steam the Mussels

    Steam the mussels for about 5-7 minutes, or until they have opened up. Discard any mussels that remain closed.

  5. 5

    Season and Serve

    Stir in chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Serve the mussels hot with lemon wedges on the side.
