Their flesh, both tender and flavourful, lends itself to a wide range of culinary techniques, offering excellent value for money and great customer satisfaction for all shellfish lovers.
Professional uses, preparation and storage:
► Gastronomic applications: This size is particularly well-suited for making traditional mussels and chips, whether prepared marinière-style, with cream, or seasoned with spices (curry, chorizo). In the kitchen, the mussels can be shelled to enrich a paella, a fish soup, or to be incorporated into seafood gratins and casseroles. The cooking liquid, once strained, is a valuable and naturally salty base for making sauces or adding flavour to a seafood risotto.
► Preparation: Before cooking, it is advisable to rinse the mussels in clean water and discard any that remain open or have broken shells. They should be cooked quickly, over a high heat and covered, just long enough for the shells to open, to preserve the tenderness and volume of the flesh.
► Storage: A live product that must be stored in a refrigerated environment, between +2°C and +6°C. It is recommended to keep the mussels in their original bag or to store them under a light weight to keep them tightly packed, which prevents them from opening prematurely and losing their water.
