Buying Mussels
Shop around when buying mussels and select those with tightly closed shells, avoiding any that are broken. Plump, juicy flesh and a succulent taste of the sea is what you are looking for once they are cooked. Color is not indicative of quality - orange flesh tells you the mussel is female, while a whiter hue suggests a male.
Unless you know how fresh they are, always eat mussels on the same day you buy them. Carefully place the blue-black mussels into a sink full of cold water and discard any that stay open when tapped. Pull away their beards and, if you are presenting them in their shells, it's a good idea to give them a good scrub, scraping off any barnacles. A final couple of rinses will ensure a sand-free meal.

Everything You Should Know About Cooking Mussels
My name is Marc Sibille.
I live in Australia and I've been a chef for 33 years.
I first studied cooking in Namur - Belgium, in one of the best European Hospitality Schools.
I've been working as Head Chef for the last 20 years; teaching and training others about Belgian and French cooking.
Mussels are one of the most popular dishes in Belgium.
I learned how to cook these tasty shellfish very early in my career, and I am a Master of how to choose, clean, prepare, cook, accomodate and serve mussels.
I'm actually working as Senior Sous Chef for a Belgian restaurant in Sydney, and our best selling product on the menu is MUSSEL!
We buy, prepare, cook and sell between One to Two tonnes of mussels a week!
Yes, you read that right, 1 to 2 tonnes PER WEEK!
That's around 78 tonnes a year! As you can see, mussels are not only popular in Belgium, but almost everywhere around the globe.
Cooking Mussels is not hard if you know what to do.
