Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the mussels

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

  2. 2

    Sauté the 'Nduja

    In a large pot or skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the 'Nduja sausage, breaking it apart with a spoon, and cook until it starts to brown.

  3. 3

    Add tomatoes and wine

    Stir in the diced tomatoes and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Cook the mussels

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

  5. 5

    Finish and serve

    Stir in chopped parsley and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve hot with grilled Bakehouse sourdough on the side.
