Steps:
- Place the mussels in a saucepan and add the wine. Cover and cook over high heat, shaking the pan occasionally to redistribute the mussels, about 4 minutes or until all the mussels are opened.
- Remove the mussels with a slotted spoon and set them aside to cool. Strain the broth. There should be about 2 1/2 cups. Reserve the broth. When the mussels are cool enough to handle, remove the meat and discard the shells.
- Add the reserved broth and the water to a large saucepan or kettle. Bring to a boil and add the zucchini. Cook 3 minutes and remove the zucchini with a slotted spoon. Let cool.
- Add the pasta to the saucepan, stir and bring to a boil. Cook 15 to 20 minutes or according to package instructions. It should be al dente. Drain well and let cool.
- Meanwhile, put the egg yolk, mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper in a mixing bowl. Beat the mixture with a wire whisk while slowly adding the oil a few drops at a time at first, then in a slow drizzle. When all the oil is incorporated, add the cayenne pepper, shallots and garlic and blend well.
- Place the zucchini, tomatoes, pasta and mussels in a large bowl. Add the sauce and the basil. Toss well. Check the seasoning and serve.
