Frozen Sea Mussel

Our Frozen Sea Mussel consists of premium, fully grown Mytilus edulis (blue mussel) or Mytilus galloprovincialis (Mediterranean mussel), harvested from certified, low-density culture ropes in the cold, nutrient-dense waters of the North Sea and Galician Rías. The mussels are purged in sterilized seawater tanks to remove sand and grit, then steam-cooked, shucked, or left on the half-shell before blast-freezing at -40°C to lock in the plump, juicy texture and sweet, briny essence. Unlike chewy or dried alternatives, our frozen sea mussel meat remains tender and succulent after thawing, with a deep orange or cream-colored flesh and a clean, ocean-fresh aroma. Available as whole meat (no shell), half-shell, or fully cooked and vacuum-sealed. Each pack contains 70–80% meat-to-shell ratio (for half-shell), with sizes ranging from 30–50 pieces per kg for meat-only, or 15–25 pieces per kg for half-shell. Nutritionally, sea mussels are exceptionally rich in vitamin B12, selenium, manganese, and long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA), while providing 18–20g of protein per 100g serving with only 1.5g of fat. Perfect for paella, pasta marinara, white wine and garlic broth, steamed mussel pots, or battered and fried. Packed in 1kg poly bags, 5kg bulk cartons, or 10kg IQF flow packs. Shelf life 24 months at -18°C. Halal, BRC, and Friend of the Sea certified. Ideal for wholesale, foodservice, and retail export worldwide.
