Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Put oil in saucepan large enough for all of the mussels. Turn heat to medium. One minute later, add scallions, ginger and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about a minute.

  2. Step 2

    Add mussels, turn heat to high, and cover pot. Cook, shaking pot occasionally, until all (or nearly all) of them open, about 10 minutes. Turn off heat.

  3. Step 3

    Scoop mussels into serving bowl. Add soy sauce to liquid, and then pass liquid through a fine strainer (or a coarse strainer lined with cheesecloth). Pour liquid over mussels, and serve.
