Sitting around a bowl of mussels, dipping them into their white-wine cooking liquid or melted garlic butter is a grand way to start a summer party. Allison MacKinnon picked the fresh herbs from his lush garden.

Ingredients

  • 2 lb mussels
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped celery
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped  fresh parsley
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives

Preparation

Scrub mussels and cut off beards; discard any that do not close when tapped.

In large saucepan, bring wine, celery, onions, pepper and salt to simmer. Add mussels; cover and bring just to boil. Cook for about 6 minutes or until mussels open; discard any that do not open. Sprinkle with parsley and chives. With slotted spoon, transfer to large warmed bowl. Pour cooking liquid into bowl for dipping.
