Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tbsp unsalted butter
4 large garlic cloves, sliced
1 tsp fennel seeds
1/4 tsp hot red pepper flakes
1 cup dry white wine
2 lb cultivated mussels , scrubbed
1 lb thin linguine
1/2 cup grated parmigiano-reggiano
1 1/2 cups chopped herbs such as basil , dill , flat-leaf parsley , and oregano

Directions:

Heat oil and butter in a 5-to 6-quart heavy pot over medium heat until foam subsides. Cook garlic, fennel seeds, and red pepper flakes with 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper, stirring, until garlic is softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add wine and boil until reduced by half, 4 to 5 minutes. Add mussels and cook, covered, shaking pot occasionally, just until mussels open wide, 5 to 8 minutes. (Discard any that remain unopened after 8 minutes.) Remove from heat and keep warm.
Meanwhile, cook linguine in a pasta pot of well-salted boiling water until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup cooking water, then drain linguine.
Toss linguine with mussels and any liquid from pot, cheese, and herbs. Thin with reserved cooking water if desired.
