About Moules

Moules, French for "mussels," are a popular seafood dish enjoyed worldwide, especially in Belgian and French cuisine. Typically steamed or served in a flavorful broth with garlic, white wine, herbs, and shallots, they offer a delicious and nutrient-rich dining experience. Mussels are a great source of high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, iron, and essential vitamins like B12, which support heart health, brain function, and energy levels. They are low in fat and calories, making them a healthy addition to many diets. However, the preparation method can influence their nutritional profile; creamy or buttery sauces may increase fat and calorie content. Sourced from sustainable fisheries, moules are also environmentally friendly seafood. With their tender texture and delicate taste, they are best enjoyed fresh and as part of a balanced meal.
