  1. Man, if I had thrown out every mussel that hadn't closed at the first tap attempt, I'd have enough to feed a village.

    You always tap them, and if they don't close, you try a bit later, once or twice more. That's my advice.

  2. I only eat mussels in the appropriate season. I find they dont taste that great in Summer months. Around here, the rope grown muscles often don't taste very good at all compared with the smaller wild muscles.

  3. I live in Norway and there’s mussels everywhere. I literally have to walk 4 meters from my home to get them. Ironically enough tho, I only eat mussels a few times a year. Usually cook some for my cats for dinner or a snack. It’s still so facilitating for me to watch people who pay for them, and treat them like something of value. Mussels picked in winter is definitely the best, they hold the most amount of fat and taste. As many here has said, 2lb would feed zero people as a main. I would recommend 4lb per person if they are tiny like the ones in this video. Also, this slow cooking at low heat in my experience makes them rubbery. I flash cook them on max heat for about 1-2 minutes

  4. I’ve been struggling with garlic/wine/butter mussel recipes cause the taste is never as balanced as I get in restaurants, I think the added homemade chicken stock is a game changer! Also I like that you browned the shallot first, Trying this soon.
