Fresh Live Mussels 900g to 1kg

A highly sustainable shellfish, we source our delicious live mussels from River Teign Shellfish in Devon. These quality mussels come packaged in specially sealed trays (please read care instructions below) to keep them as fresh as possible and allow a drip free product with easy storage.

Fresh Mussels are a great source of important vitamins. Their levels of iron and folic acid is comparable to that of red meat. Mussels are also a rich source of zinc.

• Each pack contains: 900g to 1kg live mussels 
• Serves 2+
• Should be stored in a fridge
• Not suitable to freeze

Instructions upon delivery: After opening the packet, some mussels may appear open and assumed dead. However, this is usually not the case and is quite common with MAP pack live shellfish. Fully submerge the mussels in cold clean tap water for a few minutes. Then drain and discard any broken mussels or mussels that remain wide open (it is normal for MAP packed mussels to remain slightly open and not respond much when tapped or squeezed). Once opened and briefly left to air, the mussels should smell fresh with no unpleasant or strong odours.

Live mussels should be stored in the fridge and enjoyed as soon as possible after delivery. It is best to consume within 2 days of delivery (the fresher the better). Do not freeze the product.

Occasionally, due to farming shortages, product may occasionally be substituted with a similar alternative - we will always notify you of this.
