Steamed Mussels

Green Onion Day !
Ok, we're only using 1, but I had to use it up before it went bad.  I think that's the last of them (except for the tops, which are dehydrator bound).  what to use it for????

Steamed Mussels Served over Angel Hair Pasta

1 bag of PEI Mussels (This was a great batch!  All tightly closed before cooking, and only 1 that didn't open after.  He of course was garbage bound.

The pasta kindly provided (with a small fee on my part) by Barilla Plus.
I melted about a 1/2 stick of butter in a wok (normally use my bigger pot, but that was being used for the angel hair).  In went
1 green onion, chopped, tops and all.  I didn't use the very middle piece.  Sauteed that for only about 1 minute.
2 cloves minced garlic
a few hot pepper flakes....which I forgot this time.  That was it for tonight.  no parsley in the garden except a small garnish.
Add about 1/2 cup white wine
Add the mussels, and steam about 5 minutes, giving a shake now and then, until they open.  The end result was real and spectacular!
