NoNo no

enamelled cast iron is fine.

Excuse my ignorance, but why not a cast iron pot?

@@StraightNoChaser86 The acidity from tomatoes can draw out iron form the pan & gives a metallic taste to your sauce or food. Enamelled cookware like le creuset is fine though.

@@sedatedturtle That's a myth, a few iron ions might move out of their normal place but that would take months probably. I've been cooking wonderful tomato sauces, soups and fricassee in cast iron for the past 15 years. Not once has me or my guests tasted a metallic flavor. I'm gonna go on a limb and say the properly seasoned pot is the reason why it works.

I agree, he makes a lot of sense. And let the "Sauce" cook is crucial and stir the Mussels.
