    I've been buying and cooking mussels at home for 40 years. The industry has come a long way since the early days of farm raised. Now they are always very clean, hardly ever have beards and I can go a few batches before I find a dead one or some other defect. The flavor is always outstanding !! Big thanks to all those workers for delivering such a great product, you make seafood lovers like me very happy ! Thank You !!

    *Recipe Time*
    Start off by dicing some shallots and red bell pepper, get it dancing in a wok with a little peanut oil. Soon as they start to soften, drop in a fistful of butter, a painful amount of garlic, a cup of white wine and then dump the mussels on top. Cover the wok with a lid/pan/cooking sheet so they can steam up.
    Give them at least 4 minutes, but not much more, and pop the lid off to make sure they're all opening. If needed, rotate a few unopened down into the boiling liquid and give them another 2 mins.
    Scoop em into a bowl (throwing out any that didn't open) and then pour the delicious mussel-garlic-wine juice over the top.
    Enjoy!

    Ad Mussels and cover with lid
    Explanation : the Mussels in contact with the hot oil, die instantly, are opening up releasing a bit of seawater...
    This seawater evaporates into steam instantly killing all Mussels in the pan.
    Shake the pan a few times while cooking
    Remark: cooking time 3 minutes maximum!! Longer cooking makes the Mussels tough.
    options:
    Ad
    Tomatos diced
    Big Union diced
    Sellerie
    Carot slices
    White wine
    Delicious!!

    When I was a kid, back in the late '50s, we used to visit Atlantic City. There were jetties that were packed solid with monster mussels. I am not sure if they were safe to eat due to water quality issues, but for years I would not order them in a restaurant. Then, I tried some at a famous mussel joint and fell in love with them. Whenever I visit Maine I can't get enough of them ... together with lobster.

      Mussels filter the sea water between their shells and accumulate viral, bacterial, and parasitic pathogens in their tissues. 1 Microsporidium spp. and hepatitis A virus (HAV) and norovirus (NoV) are among the most important food-borne pathogens that can be transmitted to humans through consumption of mussels.

      It's not the filtering of the water that makes you sick. It's the consumption of food that has expired and gone bad. If eating raw seafood it must be eaten within half a day, over night if refrigerated.

    A brother of a friend of mine opened a little shack on the beach near Carlsbad CA. I visited my friend a day he was working at the shack and the special of the day was locally farmed mussels. So I went for it and they were fantastic! Garlic, butter, mussels with some crusty French bread overlooking the ocean. A very memorable day indeed.

    We need more mussels farms. It cleans the water and its a tasty renewable source of protein. It doesnt produce any greenhouse gasses, you also dont need to fertilize or feed the mussels. And overal it has a lower carbon food print then a purely vegiterian diet we als humans. Under utilize the ocean to little even though most of the planet is oceans and sea we mostly only grab fish and thats it but things like here mussels that we can grow and we can also grow edible seaweed thats full of minerals and other nutrients.

      @Ryker of course there are, depending on areas and tide, toxic algae can build up in filter feeders such as oysters and mussels which is why there are seasons to collect them. Farmed mussels are obviously much safer since there are staff looking after the mussels and tests to be done to make sure the product is up to legal spec before distribution. Otherwise people with thyroid issues and certain allergies cannot eat mussels
