Mussels are up there among my very favorite kinds of shellfish, and this recipe for mussels with shallot cream sauce is one of the reasons why. They are delicious, they are inexpensive, they are reliably easy to cook, and they are all kinds of dramatic with their pretty blue shells. Combine all THAT with some delicate angel hair pasta and a creamy, dreamy shallot wine sauce and I am head over heels in seafood love. This also gives me the chance to tell you about one of the Southern husband's preferred way to eat certain dishes like this one, but in the meantime, let's make it!
