Featured Video - Mussels
Most mussels today are farmed. The most common mussels are the blue mussel and the greenlip mussel. Mussels have a crescent shape and a thick shell. Blue mussels are often purple-black in colour, but can also be brown or grey depending where they were grown.

Note about amines: Fresh seafood has low amine levels, but when older than two days the amine content rises to moderate, and any fish that has been frozen has high levels.
