   Oko 4 min

4. 4

   Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer, then add the mussels, covering the pot tightly.

   Oko 3 min

   Napomena kuhara: Ensure your pot has a tight-fitting lid to steam the mussels effectively.

   Once cool enough to handle, remove most of the mussels from their shells, leaving a few in their shells for garnish if desired.

   Oko 5 min

8. 8

   Strain the reserved mussel cooking liquid through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any grit, then set aside.

   Oko 2 min

    Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 40 minutes.

    Oko 20 min
