Directions:

Wash mussels in several changes of fresh water; using a small knife, remove beards .
Soak mussels for about 30 minutes in cold water containing a handful of salt& a handful of flour.
This will remove any sand inside the mussels.
In a large saucepan, stir together the wine, garlic, 2 tbsp of the parsley& the pepper.
Drain the mussels& add to pot.
Cook over high heat until steaming; reduce heat to low, cover& steam until shells open (about 5- 7 minutes).
Discard any that don't open.
Using a fork, remove the mussels from their shells, letting the liquid from the shells drain back into the pot.
If you want, you can reserve 5 or 6 unopened as a garnish.
Set the mussels aside in a warm serving dish.
Cook the liquid in the pot over high heat until reduced to about 3/4 cup.
Stir in butter, lemon juice& tomato paste; pour over mussels.
Garnish with remaining parsley& serve hot over your favourite pasta.
