Directions:
- Scrub the mussels, rinse in several changes of water and trim the beards, if any.
- Heat a large skillet (cast iron is best) over high heat - a DRY skillet.
- When the skillet is very hot, put all of the mussels into it and shake the pan.
- The mussels will begin to open immediately. It will sound almost like popcorn. This is the mussels opening up and releasing there juices into the hot pan.
- Continue shaking the pan until all the mussels have opened. This should not take any more than 5 min at the most. They cook quickly and you don't want to overcook them.
- Remove from the heat and season GENEROUSLY with black pepper.
- Transfer the mussels in the skillet to a table or spoon the mussels into individual bowls.
- Serve immediately.
