Zuppa Di Cozze Melewen-Style
Ready In: 15 mins
Serves: 2-4
Ingredients
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 2 fresh garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 lbs mussels, scrubbed and debearded
- salt, to taste
- 4 slices crusty bread, for serving
Directions
- In a big pot, combine the wine, butter, garlic, olive oil, and 1/2 tablespoon of the parsley over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for about four minutes, until it's aromatic. Add salt to taste.
- Add in the mussels. Cover the pan tightly and steam the mussels until they open, about 5 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally so they cook evenly. Discard any mussels that did not open.
- Divide between two bowls for a main course, among four for a second course. Serve with slices of crusty bread to soak up the broth; top with the remaining parsley.
