Mussels in white wine and garlic were a big hit in my restaurant, delicious and easy to make. A stick of butter, a cup or so of white wine and copious amounts of chopped garlic. cook covered until the mussels open, serve with italian bread for dipping. Mussels have a limited shelf life so make sure they are fresh and have no smell. Cultivated from prince edwards island are a great quality and need minimal cleaning.
