Mussels - Half Shell/Frozen

New Zealand Greenshell™ Mussels are one of the world's most successfully farmed mussels, which are found only in New Zealand. Harvested all year-round (after growing for between 14 and 18 months), farmed mussels are fatter and more tender than wild mussels.

Mature males have a creamy-white flesh, while female flesh is apricot-orange.

Availability: Available year round.

Shelf life: Best consumed on arrival or within 3 days from receiving product, discard any that are open.

Shellfish for your health: Mussels are naturally high in iron, and provide an excellent source of Omega 3, an essential fatty acid which helps in lowering blood cholesterol and maintaining a healthy circulatory system.

Suggested Wine: Try a crisp dry white like a Pinot Grigio, an unoaked Chardonnay or fruity Sauvignon Blanc.
