Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 cups dry white wine
- 4 large shallots, finely chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 pounds live mussels
- 1/3 cup mixed fresh herbs, such as flat-leaf parsley, chervil, or basil, chopped
- 6 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces
Directions
Rinse and scrub mussels under cold running water. Using your fingers or a paring knife, remove beards (strings that hang from the mussels’ shells), and discard.
In a large stockpot set over medium heat, combine wine, shallots, garlic, and salt. Simmer 5 minutes. Add mussels.
Cover, and increase heat to high. Cook until all mussels are open, about 5 minutes. Stir in herbs and butter. Remove from heat. Divide mussels and broth among four bowls. Serve immediately.

It doesn't get any easier than this. Most mussels, unless one is foraging, come without beards at local farmers' markets. I didn't like the look of the shallots at the market (old and mushy) so opted for a white onion and some garlic scapes instead. A great summertime dinner, with a tomato and cucumber salad and of course the bread to mop up the broth. Leftovers are good the next day as a cold lunch with an arugula salad.

Really good, the timings were spot on and the mussels came out tender and tasty. I used parsley for the fresh herb, and added a squeeze of lemon with the butter at the end. Served with garlic baguette to mop up the broth and a tomato and rocket (arugula) salad with a lemon and parsley dressing. Very well received in our house!

This is such a great recipe... showcases the mussels, no work at all, simple and elegant. I like to add some shaved fennel bulb. Yum!

This was wonderful! I also added crushed tomotoes and it was a great main dish for a dinner party we had for my mom's birthday. Have plenty of crusty bread on hand, because the juices are amazing to dip it in! Big hit! Even my 3 year old was eating it:) I will make it again.

This is such an effortless awesome dish! I serve it with angel hair spahgetti noodles drizzled with olive oil and some parmaggino reggiano and a salad of baby spinach, hearts of romaine, pear and gorgonzola with raspberry vinegrette.
