Mussels in fennel broth
How to make Mussels in fennel broth recipe - To clean the mussels, turn them into the sink and cover with plenty of cold water. Scrape them one by one, to remove any barnacles or hairy “beards,” and scrub the shells. Throw away any that are open or badly cracked, and cook at once. Moules dans un bouillon de fenouil recette
