Mejillones from HMB
Spent a couple nights with the family at the Oceano and took advantage of the minus tide.

Kept them alive in a cooler for 48 hours before steaming them up.

Had them steamed last night for dinner then for lunch this afternoon.

Yummy!

How do you keep them alive in the cooler for multiple days?

Place mussels in the bottom of cooler, place harvest bags e.g. burlap sack over them, then ice in zip lock bags on top. Close the lid but leave a crack for ventilation and place in a shaded area.
