Only cook mussels which are closed.
N.B. Do not eat mussels which have not opened after
being cooked. Danger of food poisoning.
Steep fresh mussels in water for a few hours before cooking
to rinse out any sand. Then brush the mussels vigorously to
remove the attached fibres.
Defrost frozen mussels before cooking.
The longer mussels are cooked, the harder they become.
