10 ingredients
openrecipes
In this recipe, mussels steam in a fragrant broth of ginger, chilies and light beer, flavored with Chinese salted black beans. Mussels are an excellent source of minerals, especially selenium and zinc, and are also high in folate. If you like, serve the mussels with rice noodles or cellophane noodles.
