MUSSELS ITALIANO
This is another recipe from my Italian sister in law. Its good with Italian crusty bread to mop up the broth. Prep time includes soaking. Based on some queries from other chefs, I'm expanding the directions to include more information about buying, storing and cleaning mussels.

Steps:
- When you bring your mussels home from the market, discard any that are chipped, broken or otherwise damaged; discard any mussel that is open.
- If you are not using right away, cover with damp paper towels in a container that can be tightly closed and store in the refrigerator.
- Just before cooking, wash the mussels in several changes of cold water.
- Using a small knife or a dry towel, remove the beards by pulling out towards the hinged side of the mussel.
- To remove any remaining sand, soak mussels for about 30 minutes in cold water containing a handful of salt and a handful of flour.
- Take each mussel from the bowl and using a firm brush, remove any barnacles before placing into another bowl of clear water.
- Melt butter in a medium sized pot; saute onions til clear.
- Add garlic& stir for another minute.
- Add tomato, oregano, salt& pepper and cook until tomato is soft.
- Add wine& bring to a slow boil.
- Dry the mussels with a clean towel, place into pot, cover & steam for 4 minutes; remove the lid & stir the mussels.
- At this point, most of the mussels should be open; replace the lid and steam for another 2 - 4 minutes.
- Discard any that don't open.
- Divide into serving bowls& cover with broth.
- If you increase the serving size for this recipe, don't add too many mussels to the pot at once or stack them on top of each other as it will make it difficult for the mussels to open due to the weight.

Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook until the mussels have opened, about 4 minutes, stirring halfway through. Discard any unopened mussels. Stir in the butter and tarragon and season with 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Serve with slices of crusty bread to dip in the sauce.

This classic Italian dish is full of flavor, with garlic, onions, basil, and tomatoes complementing the briny broth produced by the mussels. I got this recipe from The Complete Idiot's Guide to Clean Eating.

COZZE UMBRO (MUSSELS IN ITALIAN TOMATO SAUCE)
This is a wonderful way to introduce people to seafood. No surprises here -- this stuff tastes fantastic! The original recipe comes from Saleh al Lago Restaurant In Seattle, Washington, where they use Penn Cove mussels, but any mussels will do as long as they are fresh. I once had these at a convention in Toledo, Ohio and I have made them myself from this recipe on several occasions -- they are always very popular once people try them. You will find, the first time you make them, that you didn't make enough. I always make two batches rather than doubling the recipe as they are best fresh out of the pan.
