Instructions

  1. 1

    Remove mussel beards, scrub clean, and drain.

  2. 2

    Thinly slice radish and cut chives into 4 cm pieces.

  3. 3

    Boil water with radish for 8 minutes to build a refreshing base.

  4. 4

    Add mussels and rice wine, boil uncovered for 5 minutes, and discard unopened mussels.

  5. 5

    Add garlic and soup soy sauce, then simmer 3 more minutes.

  6. 6

    Add chives and pepper, boil for 1 minute, then turn off heat immediately.

Tips

Add chives at the end, as overcooking weakens their aroma.
A 20-minute saltwater soak is enough; too long can shrink mussel meat.
