Handling Indian Point Mussels

  • Remember- our pack date is on the tag. Mussels are good for 5-8 days
  • Keep cool by refrigerating at 1° to 4°C- but don’t freeze.
  • If using ice, place on top- it keeps mussels cool and wet. Remember to keep mussels well drained.
  • Mussels need to breathe, so don’t pack in airtight containers.
  • Cultivated mussels may gape but should close when tapped or squeezed.
  • Discard any broken shells or ‘mud’ mussels. Rinse mussels in cold water before cooking.
  • Mussels should smell good, with a fresh sea aroma, if they don’t something is wrong.
