Steamed marinated mussels appetizer recipe. Steamed mussels marinated in an easy homemade marinade. This delicious meal can be served as an appetizer or as a cold lunch.
For a marinade, I used mussel cooking liquid, dry white wine, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, lemon juice, ginger, garlic, and honey.
How To Steam Mussels
To steam mussels, you need water, a large kettle, and of course scrubbed and debearded mussels. So, place the mussels in a large kettle, then add the water and bring the liquid to a boil over medium-high heat.
Cover the kettle tightly and steam them for 5 minutes or until shells open. Open the kettle and discard any shellfish that have not opened. Remove the remaining mussels from their shells, reserving 1 oz (30 ml) of the cooking liquid for the marinade.
