Mussels and Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mussels

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

  2. 2

    Cook the Sausage

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the linguica sausage, and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Sauté Aromatics

    Add the shallots and garlic to the pot, and sauté for another 3-4 minutes until they are softened and fragrant.

  4. 4

    Add Flavorings

    Stir in the chili flakes, and then add the white wine. Allow it to simmer for about 2 minutes to reduce slightly.

  5. 5

    Steam the Mussels

    Add the cleaned mussels to the pot, cover with a lid, and steam for about 5-7 minutes until all mussels have opened. Discard any mussels that remain closed.

  6. 6

    Finish and Serve

    Stir in chopped fresh parsley, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve immediately with toasted slices of baguette on the side for dipping.
