This is the archetypal mussel dish, and deservedly so since it is almost impossible to improve it. Variations involve only different herbs and flavorings in the steaming liquid. Serve this dish as a first course or light main course with plenty of crusty French bread for dipping. Pour a crisp, cool country white wine, such as a Muscadet or Sancerre.

The crisp, crusty bread helps cut the richness of this dish and lets you sop up every speck of the flavorful sauce. It also makes for an interestingly artful presentation. When buying mussels in their shells, get a few more than the recipe calls for; almost inevitably, some will be unusable.
