Best Darn Mussels You'll Ever Eat - With Pasta image

I found this recipe on canadiancove.com and I'm putting it here for safe keeping. It's the best I've ever used. The website says "A Regional U.S. recipe by Cathy Silvey and Richard Wood of Mercer Island, Washington. Winner of First Place in the 1993 National Mussel Recipe Contest" I doubled this recipe and used 1 large jalapeno with seeds and it turned out perfectly.
