The mussels were a hit last month. For this month, our friend Christine created another recipe with an Italian twist.
Ingredients:
20 cloves of garlic
3 pounds of mussels
A handful of chopped parsley
One stick of butter
1/2 a cup of dry white wine
1/2 a teaspoon of hot pepper flakes
Soak mussels in cold water. Sautee garlic in butter. Add wine to pan. Put mussels in pan, cover. Cook for 5-7. Remove mussels. Reduce heat, simmer until sauce slightly thickens. Add hot pepper flakes and parsley. Pour sauce over mussels. Serve with Italian bread.
