Ina is always my "go-to", but this one hits all the points! The best summer date night dinner! I didn't use as much saffron as the recipe calls for, (but I will next time and I didn't have parsley available (but I will next time! A crisp Sauvignon Blanc, crunchy French bread...heaven!

Simple but delicious recipe. Use good wine! I sent my BF to the store and he tends to skimp when it comes to wine but send him to the store for beer and he'll come home with his expensive craft beer. Anyways, I've made this twice and can totally tell the difference if you use so so wine. Instead of shallots I use yellow onions because once again my BF thinks "onions and shallots, same thing". The onions tasted good though. This is definitely my go to recipe for mussels.

Love Mussels. Had 4 lbs the other night - half of them would not close when touched,tapped.
So I cooked the ones in a different pot - as an experiment. I only lost about 4 mussels - almost all 4 lbs were perfect. So why did they not close during cleaning/handeling? I had them on ice in the fridge for the day. maybe too cold? anyway i did not have to throw them away.

This was excellent!! My first time trying mussels. I live in the south surrounded by seafood. Had to buy the mussels at a specialty shop and I will be buying more. This is my new favorite!

Awesome, but decrease the amount of salt so you can dip your bread in the broth.

We made this last night and it was delicious! The only comment that I would make is that I found the broth to be a bit too salty. I will make this again for sure, however next time I would probably cut the salt in half.

Hands down, my absolute favorite way to prepare mussels. So incredibly tasty and delicious. The whole dish comes together in just a few minutes and makes a great presentation. This is one of my favorite "date-night" meals to prepare because it's easy yet elegant -- but still fun! Pour yourself and your date a glass of that wine while it's cooking, put on some tunes, and in no time you have an amazing meal. Serve with orzo salad and brownie pudding for dessert. What a perfect night! My one regret was that I had no bread to soak up the extra juice! 5 stars all around, Ina!
