Notes
To enhance the flavors, you can add a splash of cream after cooking the mussels for a richer broth.
If you don't have white wine, chicken or vegetable broth works as a great substitute for a non-alcoholic version.
These mussels can be served on their own or over pasta for a heartier meal. Enjoy the delightful aroma and taste of this French classic!
