How To Make steamed mussels

1
With stiff brush, scrub mussel shells and tear off beards. Rinse mussels thoroughly under cold running water. In deep 10-inch skillet or 5-quart kettle, combine mussels, wine, garlic, 2 tablespoons basil, dill, and thyme leaves. Cover skillet and cook mussels over medium heat for 5 to 8 minutes or until the shells open. Discard any unopened mussels. With tongs, divide mussels among 4 soup plates; pour broth over mussels. Sprinkle with remaining chopped basil and garnish with thyme sprigs. Serve.
