For a garnish, one dozen pieces of toasted bread rubbed with garlic.

Open the 10 mussels and remove them from their shell. Separate and wash the shells very well. Clean, wash and dry the 80 mussels. Place 4 mussels in each shell, and then place the shells on an oven dish.

Melt the butter in a saucepan, add the garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Mix and pour over the raw mussels. Place in a hot oven for 5 minutes. Served with toasted bread.
