Vima Canned Mussels are from the Galician estuaries in northern Spain. They are grown on punts, huge wooden platforms, where they attach themselves on ropes deep in Galicia’s pristine waters. When they reach their optimum size, they are selected and prepared with a light marinade recipe based on sunflower oil, vinegar, salt, and spices that enhance this bivalve mollusk’s flavor.
Mussels are a very versatile food. They can be used in salads, pasta dishes, snack on crackers, or part of the main course.
