Superb quick fix dinner
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

If you don't count the mussel's cleaning and prep time, you have a quick dinner. We made only 3 lbs, and threw out the bad... mussels from the bunch, and still had plenty for two hefty servings. I took the previous reviewer's suggestion to add minced jalape?os - brilliant. Added heat and a great flavor. Overall, a simple yet deliciously sophisticated dish. Read more

Great as an app or entree
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I've been making this recipe for years, with a slight modification. I also add a finely diced jalapeno for some extra flavor... and heat. These mussels are always a hit when I make them for a crowd. A super easy dish with super great flavor. I alternate between dark beer and dry white wine for the steaming liquid, it depends on the rest of the meal.Read more
