What you'll need

  • 1 lb steamed mussels
  • a pinch lemon
  • 4 oz unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup garlic
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 3 cloves kosher salt
  • to taste flaky salt
Method

Step by step

  1. Pat the steamed mussels dry and season it well so it browns instead of steaming.
  2. Get your pan hot and render the aromatics until they smell sweet and toasty.
  3. Return the steamed mussels, add just enough liquid, and simmer until everything is tender.
  4. Taste, brighten with a squeeze of citrus, and plate while it is still hot.
