Yield Serves 2 as a first course

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
3 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced shallot
2 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 medium tomatoes
1/2 lemon
1 1/2 pounds Penn Cove or other cultivated mussels (about 30)
1/2 cup dry white wine
3/4 cup heavy cream
Garnish: diced seeded tomato and finely chopped fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • In a bowl stir together butter, 1 tablespoon garlic, shallot, ‚ tablespoon parsley, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste. Seed tomatoes and cut into 1/4-inch dice. Cut lemon into 4 wedges. Scrub mussels and remove beards.
  • In a 4-quart heavy saucepan melt herb butter over moderate heat. Add lemon wedges and remaining garlic and cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Add mussels and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add wine, cream, and salt and pepper to taste and simmer, covered, until mussels are opened, about 5 minutes. Discard any unopened mussels. Stir in tomato and remaining parsley.
  • Divide mixture between 2 soup plates and garnish with tomato and parsley. Serve mussels immediately.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality mussels. The fresher the mussels, the better they will taste. Look for mussels that are tightly closed and have no cracks or chips in their shells.
  • Clean the mussels thoroughly. Before cooking, remove any barnacles or other debris from the mussels' shells. Use a stiff brush to scrub the mussels clean.
  • Soak the mussels in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking. This will help to remove any sand or grit from the mussels.
  • Cook the mussels in a flavorful liquid. The liquid you use to cook the mussels will infuse them with flavor. Use a combination of rice wine, sesame oil, soy sauce, and ginger to create a delicious marinade.
  • Do not overcook the mussels. Mussels only take a few minutes to cook. Overcooking them will make them tough and rubbery.
  • Serve the mussels immediately. Mussels are best served immediately after they are cooked. You can serve them as an appetizer or main course.

Conclusion:

Marinated Penn Cove Mussels in a Rice Wine and Sesame Vinaigrette is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The mussels are tender and flavorful, and the marinade adds a delightful Asian flavor. This dish is sure to impress your guests!
