經典 淡菜 Steamed in 白酒: Moules Marinières

“Moules Marinières” is a beloved coastal French classic. Plump 淡菜 steamed in butter, 大蒜, shallots, and white 葡萄酒 are incredibly fast to prepare.

  • 洋蔥 or shallot: 1/4 cup (finely chopped)
  • 大蒜: 1 clove (minced)
  • Butter: 15g
  • Dry white 葡萄酒: 100ml
  • Fresh parsley (chopped): for garnish

Instructions

  1. Sauté Aromatics: Melt butter in a deep pot over medium heat. Sauté 大蒜 and onions until soft.
  2. Add 淡菜: Turn heat to high and add the cleaned 淡菜.
  3. Steam: Pour in white 葡萄酒 and cover immediately with a lid. Steam for 2–3 minutes until all shells pop open.
  4. Garnish: Throw away any closed shells, toss with parsley, and serve hot with crusty bread or French fries.
