Well, it's one of those weird times around the Monterey Bay here that not much is coming in besides Crab still, in small quantities. It's sort of that calm between two storms as we wind down Dungeness season and await the local King Salmon season. During these times we have to get a little more creative with our selections but we got our hands on a beautiful shipment of fresh Washington Mussels.
We will be INCREASING the share sizes to approx .75 lb for a Single Share, 1.5 lbs for a Couple Share, and 3 lbs for a Family Share.
We've got some super tasty recipes linked below but Mussels are also just wonderful simply steamed in a little butter, garlic, and white wine.
We recommend a light freshwater rinse before cooking, either right in the net bag or in a colander. They should last several days uncooked in the fridge and will do best stored well ventilated - like in a bowl on the refrigerator shelf.
We hope this blustery chilly weather will make a nice piping hot bowl of Mussels be an enjoyable comfort meal for you all!
As a reminder, if you are on the 'no mussel' or "no shellfish' list, we'll send a substitute.
