Best 3 Mussel Brodetto Recipes

MUSSEL BRODETTO RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Pour the 1/2 cup of olive oil into the big pan, toss in the garlic, and set over medium-high heat. After 2 or 3 minutes, when the garlic is sizzling nicely, drop in the lemon slices, raise the heat to high, and cook stirring, for a minute or so until the lemon is sizzling and melting into the oil and the garlic is just starting to turn golden. Toss in the onion slices, sprinkle on 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and cook, stirring and shaking the pan for 2 to 3 minutes or so, until wilted. Dump in all the mussels and immediately begin tossing them in the hot oil, lemon and onion, for a half a minute or so. Cover the pot and cook for a minute, shaking it often; uncover and pour in the wine, toss the mussels; add another 1/4 teaspoon salt and grinds of pepper, toss the mussels well and cover. Cook two minutes or so, until most of the mussels are opening and are still plump. Sprinkle the bread crumbs over all and toss well, mixing the crumbs with the sauce; then toss the mussels with the parsley. Finally, turn off the heat and drizzle the 2 tablespoons of olive oil all over and toss, coating the mussels with the hot sauce. Serve right away, in hot bowls, ladling some of the brodetto over each portion of mussels.

Steps:

• Steam the mussels with the wine and water until opened, 3 to 5 minutes. Strain, reserve the broth and set the mussels aside to cool.

Remove from heat and puree in a blender or food processor until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean saucepan. Add salt and pepper to taste. Simmer over medium-low heat.
