Cozze alla Marinara
Mussela Marinara
Did you know mussels that are whitish in color are the males, whereas
the females have the strong orange color?
1.5 kg mussels
12 Tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1/2 red pepper
2 Tbsp chopped parsley
1 1/2 glass of dry white wine
salt
Clean the mussels with the help of a wire brush, removing all the
growths by holding the mussel firmly between index and thumb and
pulling towards the large side. Wash them thoroughly under running
water. In a very large saucepan, pour the oil, saute the garlic, and
before
it browns add the red pepper, salt, wine and mussels. Stir them well
and let them cook till the shells open.
Discard the mussels that have not opened, sprinkle with parsley and
serve hot.
