I always steam my mussels in white wine or beer. We wanted to do something different and tried this recipe. It is fabulous! I made pommes frites and served them with aioli, remoulade and curried ketchup. Everyone loved both the mussels and the pommes frites. I would sautee the fennel a little longer than it says - maybe almost 10 minutes, to get it soft.
