Few things say Mediterranean table like a steaming bowl of mussels. We steam ours open with white wine, garlic and fresh herbs, leaving a fragrant broth that is half the pleasure.
Bring bread
The mussels are only the beginning. The real reward is the garlicky, winey broth at the bottom of the bowl, and a piece of good Maltese bread to finish it. It is a dish made for sharing and taking your time over.
Never leave the broth behind. That is where the flavour lives.
