DNR: Steamed Mussels and the Bread

I had a leftover glass of DuMol 2008 left over, so briny Steamed Mussels was an obvious option. No reference, cookbooks needed here: 

1 tbs of Olive Oil

Sautee red chili flakes, shallots, and celery and boil down Chardonnay (3/4 cup). 

Dump carefully cleaned Mussels (1 lbs) into the pot and take down heat a notch before covering. 

Shake covered pan @ 3 minutes.  Should be done at 6 to 8 minutes.  Parsley optional. 

Happy Mussels = Opened Mussels.  Discard the rest.

Slurp and/or dunk mussels and broth with some crusty bread.  

Good night.
