AOP Bouchot Mussels

In France, bouchot mussels are protected by AOP (protected origin) status, meaning they have to originate from the bay of Mont Saint-Michel to carry that name. A true jewel of French gastronomy.

Bouchot is a traditional aquaculture technique for mussels. It means that the mussel was grown on ropes strung from wooden poles in the sea. The result is a mussel with full meats and a cleaner flavor.

Chef’s Advice
When cooking mussels, we recommend to remove them one by one from the heat as soon as the single mussel opens. 
The best way to cook Bouchot Mussels is of course in a “French style” or over high heat in a casserole with shallots and Provencal herbs.
