Talley's New Zealand green mussels

Description

An exclusive variety (Perna canaliculus) This species lives exclusively in the ecologically impeccable coastal waters of New Zealand. They are easy to recognise by the striking emerald-green border on the shell A delicate sweetness: unlike standard seafood, green mussels have a refined, slightly sweet taste with a rich but soft iodine undertone. Juicy meatiness: every mussel is large, dense and incredibly tender. They do not lose volume during cooking, staying plump and juicy An impressive size: they are several times larger than the usual Black Sea or Chilean mussels. Every shell is a full, luxurious portion of tender meat Natural purity: thanks to the strictest ecological control and natural filtration in the ocean, these mussels have no taste of sand or foreign smells — only the primordial taste of the sea An impeccable form of presentation: the mussels are already carefully cleaned and presented on one shell (the half shell). This is a perfect "boat" created for beautiful restaurant plating and convenient baking The perfect pair The native classic: Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc Aristocratic minerality: Chablis or Muscadet Festive chic: Champagne and elegant sparkling wine Pack 1 kg
