Live Mussels

MUSSELS ARE MARVELLOUS!! SUMMER IS OVER, SO WE CAN ALL NOW RELAX AND ENJOY MUSSELS AS THEY START TO REACH THEIR PEAK THROUGH MID-WINTER. Tim and the boys at Porthilly shellfish have been supplying us with our oysters and mussels for several years. They are the best mussels we've ever seen. Heavy, hard shells and sweet plump meat. They're a truly robust mussel, grown on the bed of the Camel Estuary in Cornwall and we get nothing but praise for them. They are at their best from September to April

Cooking tips

Porthilly mussels are very robust, but like all bivalves they don’t particularly like a chilly fridge. If you find any that have opened when you go to use them, DON'T PANIC! Take them out of the bag, pop them in a colander and give them a really good hard shake with little splashes of water. Tim's mussels really are robust and they will close. Be quite brutal, they sometimes need a good shake about but you will see the shell start to close. As long as there's movement (even if it's very slow), they are alive and you can just throw them in the pan and enjoy
