About Moulles

Moules, or mussels, are a popular shellfish commonly associated with French and Belgian cuisine. This dish typically features fresh mussels steamed in a broth made with white wine, garlic, shallots, and herbs, often accompanied by bread or fries. Mussels are rich in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential nutrients like zinc, iron, and vitamin B12, supporting heart health and immune function. They are low in fat and calories, making them a nutritious seafood option. However, variations of moules prepared with cream-based sauces or served with fried accompaniments may increase calorie and fat content. Additionally, like other shellfish, mussels can potentially contain environmental contaminants, so sourcing and moderation are important for maintaining their health benefits. Overall, moules offer a delicious and nutrient-packed seafood choice suitable for many diets.
