Mussels with Spicy Italian Sausage

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 shallots, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
Fine sea salt and freshly ground white pepper
2 links spicy Italian sausage, casings removed and roughly chopped
1 cup dry white wine
1 rosemary sprig
3 pounds small mussels, scrubbed and beards removed
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons fresh bread crumbs, toasted

Place the olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the shallots and garlic, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the shallots are translucent but still have a bit of crunch, about 3 minutes.

Add the sausage to the pan and cook, stirring to crumble it, for 5 minutes, or until thoroughly cooked. Add the wine and rosemary and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium, add the mussels, cover the pan, and steam until the mussels open, 3 to 5 minutes.

Sprinkle the parsley and bread crumbs over all. Divide the mussels among six bowls and ladle the broth and sausage over them. Serve with crusty bread.

Makes 6 servings.
