Title says it all - bargain!
Fresh mussels cooked well are so tasty and tender, though it is easy to overcook and turn them rubbery.
There are a few good recipes here:
- Mussels with shallots, garlic, parsley and cream
- Grilled Mussels with bacon and parmesan cheese
- Mussels with garlic lemon chive butter
They are also great in a seafood risotto or paella.
