Mussels au Gratin. — Remove and clean the mussels, straining all the liquor thoroughly. Then make this sauce : Fry two tablespoonfuls of chopped onions in butter for a few minutes, but do not let them brown ; add about a teaspoonful of flour, and, while the onions are blending, add the liquor of the mussels, stirring it in slowly. Cook this mixture for a few minutes; then add a tablespoonful of vinegar, the same quantity of chopped parsley and pepper and salt to taste
