List of Ingredients




4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup chopped onions
2 tablespoons minced shallots
1 stalk celery, finely diced
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1/2 cup dry white wine
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 pounds (about 2 dozen) mussels, cleaned

* In a pot large enough to accommodate the mussels heat 2 tablespoons butter and gently cook onions, shallots, celery and half of the parsley for about 5 minutes or until tender.
* Add wine and bring to a boil.
* Season with pepper, add the mussels and raise the heat. When the steam starts to escape, shake the pot, keeping the cover tightly on to rotate the mussels inside.
* Cook them for 5 to 7 minutes or until they open.
* Discard unopened mussels and set them in a deep bowl.
* Pour mussel cooking liquid through a fine strainer into a saucepan and reduce quickly and slightly.


* Whisk in remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and parsley and spoon over mussels.
