"If Dante really had seen what Heaven was like then surely he would have known what the angels` favorite soup was."

Ingredients

  • mussels - 4 lb (1.75 kg) with the shells
  • white wine - 2/3 cup (150 ml)
  • olive oil - 1/2 cup (120 ml)
  • garlic - 2 cloves
  • lemons - 1 tbsp, juice
  • parsley - 4 tbsp
  • black pepper
  • bread
measures

How to make

Soak the mussels in cold water, carefully clean the shells, removing all mussels whose shells are open.

Heat the olive oil with the pressed garlic and parsley. Heat the wine, bring to a boil and leave it to boil for about 30 seconds so the alcohol boils off.

Add the mussels to this mixture, cover with a lid and saute 2-3 min., shaking the container periodically.

Take out the mussels and remove the shells, filter the sauce through a cheesecloth and sprinkle with black pepper.

Serve a toasted slice of bread covered with mussels and generously soaked in sauce. Before serving, sprinkle with parsley.
