For an intensified flavor profile, consider introducing a splash of dry white wine or a sprig of fresh thyme during the steaming process. Ensure the mussels are impeccably cleaned prior to cooking. A thorough scrub under cold, running water will remove any lingering sand or impurities. Serve with crusty bread to soak up the delectable broth!
