A delightful twist on the classic French mussels recipe, perfect for a cozy dinner.
Clean the mussels by placing them in fresh water, scrubbing their shells, and removing any beards.
Discard any mussels that remain open after tapping them lightly.
Chop the onion and garlic finely.
Use a sharp knife to make chopping easier and safer.
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and sauté the onion and garlic until fragrant.
Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
Add the white wine to the saucepan and bring it to a simmer.
Use a wine you enjoy drinking for the best flavor.
Add the mussels to the saucepan, cover, and cook on high heat for 5 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally.
Ensure all mussels open during cooking; discard any that remain closed.
Reduce the heat to low, stir in the cream, and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
Mix gently to coat the mussels evenly with the sauce.
Serve the mussels hot with crusty bread on the side.
Garnish with additional parsley for a fresh touch.
