Dagnje na buzaru is a traditional dish of the Croatian coast prepared with mussels as the main ingredient. The shells are scrubbed, placed into a pot with lukewarm water, covered, and lightly heated until all of them crack open. Olive oil, garlic, parsley, and a bit of pepper are sautéed, then mixed with the mussels and maybe a few slices of lemon. White wine is added for the final touch, and the dish is then shortly simmered. Before serving, dagnje na buzaru are often sprinkled with breadcrumbs for thickening, and the dish is then served with lots of bread on the side for mopping up the leftover juices. Dagnje na buzaru is a 'white' version of the dish, but there is also a 'red' version called dagnje na crvenu buzaru or dagnje na crveno, prepared mostly in the same way, but with the addition of tomato sauce and without breadcrumbs.
