Scrub mussels with a brush; rinse well. Remove beards (see Note). Check mussels for edibility; live ones will have tightly closed shells or will close their shells when tapped.

Add thyme, orange rind, wine, and the water. Cover and microwave on 100% power until liquid boils, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add mussels. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Microwave at 100% power until mussels open, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir mussels with a large spoon after 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove mussels to individual shallow bowls. Discard any that do not open. If broth is sandy, strain through several layers of cheesecloth. Pour over cooked mussels and serve.
