Directions:
- Clean all the vegetables, except the garlic, and chop them very finely. Allow the butter to reach room temperature so that it is soft.
- Lightly fry the onion and shallots in 2 ounces of butter in a large pot, and add all the chopped vegetables and the thyme and tarragon, also finely chopped.
- Pour 1/4 of Riesling, and allow to simmer for a quarter of an hour.
- During this time, crush the garlic, and mix with the remaining butter. To this add a little freshly milled pepper.
- Put the pot on a very high heat, and drop the mussels into the boiling contents, pouring in the rest of the wine.
- Cover firmly. Every two minutes stir with a circular movement to make sure the mussels do not remain at the bottom of the pot.
- After ten minutes almost all the mussels should have opened.
- Now put the garlic butter in the pot. In two or three minutes, with regular stirring, the sauce should have mixed thoroughly.
- Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley, and serve immediately.
- Crisp pommes frites should be served with mussels, and an outstanding Riesling.
- Luxembourg's Belgian neighbours often drink a cold beer with their mussels.
