Place the cleaned mussels in a large bowl filled with cool water and let them soak for at least 60 minutes to allow them to expel any sand.
Remove the fibrous beard from each mussel by pulling it firmly toward the hinge of the shell.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the finely chopped shallots and minced garlic, sautéing until they are soft and fragrant.
Add the prepared mussels, white wine, buttermilk, butter, and fresh parsley to the pot. Season with kosher salt, stir well, and cover the pot with a lid.
Steam the mussels for 10 to 15 minutes, or until all shells have opened. Discard any mussels that remain closed.
Divide the mussels and the flavorful broth between two bowls and serve immediately with crusty bread.
