MUSSELS MARINIERE (adapted from Jeff Slagg of Sel De Mer)

INGREDIENTS: 

• 4 stalks celery (chopped)
• 3 shallots (sliced)
• 4 cloves (minced)
• olive oil
• 2 pounds mussels
• 1/2 cup white wine 
• 6 TBSP butter
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp pepper

Coat the bottom of a pan with olive oil and heat it up.  When it starts to shimmer, add your celery and cook until it begins to caramelize.  Next add the shallots and garlic and saute until transluscent.  Quickly add your mussels, white wine, and butter.  Salt and pepper, cover and wait until the mussels have just opened, about 3-5 minutes. Serve with fries.
