Be sure to buy live mussels. Any open mussels that do not close when you press their shells a few times are dead, and you should discard them.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium shallot, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground pepper
4 pounds mussels, scrubbed
1 cup chicken broth
1 1/2 cups dry white wine, (I like Sauvignon Blanc)
4 tablespoons butter,
1/4 cup coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • In a Dutch oven or large pot with a lid, heat the olive oil and add the shallot and chopped garlic, season lightly with salt and pepper and cook over medium heat, stirring, until the garlic is softened and barely golden, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil then add the mussels and wine, cook for 1 minute, giving it a stir occasionally. Cover with the lid and steam the mussels until they open, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the mussels to 6 serving bowls, discarding any mussels that do not open.
  • Return the pot to the heat and bring to a boil to reduce the pot broth slightly. Add the butter and parsley to the broth, and stir until the butter melts. Slowly pour the broth over each serving of the mussels. Garnish each serving with a sprinkle of chopped parsley and serve with crusty grilled bread.

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 pounds cultivated mussels
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons good olive oil
1 cup chopped shallots (5 to 7 shallots)
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic (5 to 6 cloves)
1/2 cup chopped canned plum tomatoes, drained (4 ounces)
1/2 teaspoon good saffron threads
1/3 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1 cup good white wine
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • To clean the mussels, put them in a large bowl with 2 quarts of water and the flour and soak for 30 minutes, or until the mussels disgorge any sand. Drain the mussels, then remove the "beard" from each with your fingers. If they're dirty, scrub the mussels with a brush under running water. Discard any mussels whose shells aren't tightly shut.
  • In a large non-aluminum stockpot, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook for 5 minutes; then add the garlic and cook for 3 more minutes, or until the shallots are translucent. Add the tomatoes, saffron, parsley, thyme, wine, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil.
  • Add the mussels, stir well, then cover the pot, and cook over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes, until all the mussels are opened (discard any that do not open). With the lid on, shake the pot once or twice to be sure the mussels don't burn on the bottom. Pour the mussels and the sauce into a large bowl and serve hot.

You can't go wrong with mussels cooked in white wine. Make your own garlic butter flavoured with herbs and smoked paprika for the toasts, too - it's so easy

Provided by Rosie Birkett

Categories     Dinner, Fish Course, Supper

Time 16m

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 slices sourdough bread
1 tbsp olive oil
knob of butter
small bunch of parsley , stalks finely chopped (keep the leaves for the butter, and to serve)
1 bay leaf
1 shallot , finely chopped
1kg mussels , cleaned and beards removed
1 glass white wine (I used chardonnay)
40g unsalted butter
2 garlic cloves
1 tbsp chopped parsley leaves , plus extra to serve
½ tbsp tarragon leaves
½ tsp smoked paprika
large pinch sea salt
10g parmesan , grated

Steps:

  • First, make the garlic butter. Blitz all the ingredients in a food processor, then set aside. The butter can be made ahead and chilled in the fridge for up to five days. Toast one side of each sourdough slice under the grill. Spread the other side thickly with the butter and place under the grill again until the butter is bubbling. Turn off the grill and keep the toasts warm.

Add the parsley stalks, bay leaf, shallot and ½ tsp pepper, and sweat for a few mins until the shallots are softening and fragrant. Add the mussels and white wine, stir, cover tightly with a lid and steam for 2-3 mins until all the mussels have opened.
  • Spoon into bowls, pour over the pan juices, scatter over some chopped parsley and serve with the toasts.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs fresh mussels
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons oil
2 medium tomatoes, diced
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup heavy cream
4 tablespoons parsley, chopped
1 lemon, quartered
salt & pepper

  • Do not overcook.
  • Mussels are done when shells have opened.
  • Divide into 4 bowl with broth.
  • Garnish with parsley and lemon wedge.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh mussels: Look for mussels that are closed tightly and have no cracks or chips in their shells. Avoid any mussels that are open or have a foul odor.
  • Clean the mussels thoroughly: Use a stiff brush to scrub the mussels under running water. Remove any barnacles or debris from the shells.
  • Use a good quality white wine: The wine you use will add flavor to the sauce, so choose a wine that you enjoy drinking. A dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio, is a good option.
  • Don't overcook the mussels: Mussels cook quickly, so it's important not to overcook them. Overcooked mussels will become tough and chewy.
  • Serve the mussels immediately: Mussels are best served immediately after they are cooked. They can be served with crusty bread, pasta, or rice.
