Preparation

Step 1

Wash mussels thoroughly and remove the beards or (the stringlike appendages sticking out from the shells), by gripping them with a dry kitchen towel and yanking straight out.

Mix wine, garlic, parsley and butter in a 5-quart pot with a tight-fitting lid. Bring to a quick simmer, add the mussels and cover tightly. Steam for 10 minutes, or until shells are open, discard any unopened mussels. Divide mussels and broth in four soup bowls.
