Steps:
- Scrub the mussels under cold water. You'll need 4 pounds (1.8 kg) of mussels. Place them in a large colander and rinse them under cold water in the sink. Use a vegetable brush to scrub the mussels and rinse them well. If you haven't bought mussels before, look for small ones. In most cases, they're cultivated so they don't have much sand in them and have a less fishy taste than wild varieties.
- Scrape off any barnacles. As you're washing the mussels, examine the shells' exterior carefully. Hard, cone-like bumps on the surface are known as barnacles and should be removed. A vegetable brush usually isn't strong enough to take them off, so use a paring knife to scrape them away.
- Throw away any cracked shells. While you're washing the mussels, pay careful attention the shells. A closed or slightly gaping shell indicates that the mussel is fresh, while an open or cracked shell is a sign that it may be spoiled. Discard any cracked or opened shells. It's a good idea to smell the mussels after you wash them too. They should smell like the ocean to indicate that they're fresh.
- Cut away any beards from the mussels. After the mussels are washed, look along the seam between the two halves of the shells. Any brownish threads that resemble seaweed hanging from the area are known as the beard. Use your fingers to tear them away or pull them taut and cut them with a sharp knife. If you've purchased cultivated mussels, the beards have likely been mechanically removed.

Steps:
- Rinse the mussels under cold running water while scrubbing with a vegetable brush. Discard any with broken shells. Heat oil in a 6 to 8-quart stockpot. Saute the shallot, garlic and thyme to create a base flavor. Add the mussels and give them a good toss. Add wine, lemon juice, chicken broth and red pepper flakes; cover the pot and steam over medium-high for 5 minutes until the mussels open. Toss in the tomato, parsley and butter, recover the pot, and steam for another minute to soften. The tomatoes should keep their shape. Serve with plenty of grilled garlic bread to sop up the broth.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Sweat the shallots until translucent and without any color, 1 to 2 minutes, and then add the garlic and cook 1 minute longer. Pour in the wine and bring to a simmer before adding the mussels. Cover tightly with a lid and steam until the mussels open, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the mussels from the pot to avoid over-cooking, and discard any that do not open. Serve alongside the cooking liquid.
HOW TO CLEAN AND STEAM MUSSELS
Steps:
- To clean mussels:
- Scrub them with a brush under cold water and scrape off any barnacles with a knife. If the byssus, or beard , is still attached (most cultivated mussels have been trimmed mechanically), remove it by pulling it from tip to hinge or pulling and cutting it off with your knife. Do this just before cooking. Discard any with cracked or open shells.
- To steam mussels:
- For 1 1/2 to 4 1/2 pounds mussels, put 1 cup liquid (water or a mix of water and white wine or beer) in a 4- to 6-quart pot. Bring to a boil, then dump in the mussels and cover. Reduce heat to moderate and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mussels open wide. This will take 3 to 6 minutes, but check frequently after 3 minutes. Scoop out the mussels with a slotted spoon (discard any that are unopened) and save the flavor-packed liquid if desired.
STEAMED MUSSELS II
Less is more when it comes to cooking mussels! Use only fresh mussels, which are tightly closed when you buy them. If you can't find fresh mussels, make something else! Serve with slices of fresh crusty bread to soak up the delicious broth.
