Add the wine and boil briskly to reduce the mixture to about 1/4 cup. Add the tomatoes and simmer uncovered about 20 minutes over low heat. 4. Add the mussels, cover the pan and cook a few minutes longer. Discard any that remain closed. Serve immediately. NOTE: The soup can be made ahead and warmed over medium heat. Do not make more than 1 day in advance. Be sure to scrub the mussels well, so as to remove all of the beards. Garnish with lemon peel. DEL MONDO RISTORANTE N.
