Bread-Crumb Mussels

These mussels are a tasty appetizer. Mussels from the east coast are particularly renowned, but people all over Canada enjoy them as a snack, often accompanied by a cold glass of beer.

Combine the bread crumbs and the butter until they reach the desired consistency. Add parsley and the garlic as well. Turn on the broiler.

In a steamer, cook the mussels until they open. If there are any that do not open, throw them away. Place the mussels on a baking tray.

Cut one lemon in half and sprinkle the mussels with the juice. Slice the remaining lemons and serve as a garnish on the side.

Scoop about a teaspoon of the breadcrumb mixture on each mussel.

Once the broiler has heated up, broil the mussels for about 5 or 6 minutes. They are now ready to be served.
