Wonderful recipe. I added two cloves of garlic, minced, sautéing 1 minute before adding the mussels. I also substituted heavy cream for the crème fraiche. So easy and so delicious.

Easy, simple, and good but not as great as other shellfish dishes I've had. Since it was just us 3, I only used 1 onion and 2 celery stalks. I think this dish needs garlic and maybe use heavy cream instead of creme fraiche. Overall, we had a nice dinner! Thanks

Excellent recipe. Used sour cream and cream cheese instead.

Fabulous recipe. Added a little zip with some cayenne, but otherwise just perfect. The sauce is to die for...have lots of break on handy.

So easy and simple and yet, Fantastic! I like how i got to drink the wine with the meal and paired so well! (of course) I just stuck to the recipe and did not change a thing!

This is the best mussels I have ever tasted!! Very simple ingredients, but very tasteful. The only change I did was using just 1 stalk of celery, 250 ml of wine mixed with bacardi rum and no parsley just more thyme. Garlic bread is great aside this dish. This was a tip from a friend, and as I said: It´s simply the best!!

This was a great recipe. The only thing I changed was using garlic butter instead of normal as it added a nice change to the flavour. TRhanks for the recipe.
