Easy Amazing Steamed Mussels

  1. I soak my mussels in water and the flour to rid them of sand.
  2. In a sauce pan, add butter and onions; cook till onions start to become transparent.
  3. Then add 4 tablespoons garlic, lemon juice (save the juiced halves), 1 cup wine, pepper, salt, and simmer until thickened slightly.
  4. Add pernod and basil; turn off heat.
  5. While sauce is simmering, put cleaned mussels into a large pot with the remaining wine, garlic, and the juiced lemons from the sauce.
  6. Steam until all shells have opened.
  7. Discard and unopened shells.
  8. Put mussels into a bowl and spoon sauce over.
  9. Eat with good crusty bread and glass of wine!
