I Promise You Can Cook Mussels

Caro Chambers Easy Mussels

In Caroline Chambers’ latest cookbook, What To Cook When You Don’t Feel Like Cooking, she shares this recipe for mussels in a creamy, white wine sauce.

“There’s a restaurant in New York City called Flex Mussels that my friends and I used to frequent when I lived there in my twenties. It’s the coziest little spot, and the entire menu is—you guessed it—different variations of mussels. We’d get a couple different bowls of mussels, a ton of bread for dunking, and a crisp bottle of Sancerre and share everything. Now I love cooking mussels at home—it’s truly SO EASY, whether it’s a dinner party or a simple weeknight meal at home, and they make for such a fun vibe, with everyone opening the mussels and ripping off bread to dunk into the sauce. This is my all-time favorite super-simple mussels recipe, and in the Riffs I’ve also included a curry version that I love, too.
