About Tinned Lyme Bay Mussels - Escabeche
Rope grown Mussels are harvested from Lyme Bay, not far from our base in Brixham. They are steamed, deep-fried and preserved in a very light pickle or escabeche before being hand laid into tins.
Wonderful just as they are as a starter or tapas.

Tinned Lyme Bay Mussels - Escabeche
A good Monday market to get the week going. Hake is the first thing to look at this morning and the smoked haddock from Alfred Enderby’s kiln is always worth picking up while it’s fresh. There are some lovely red mullet and black bream about too, and it’s good to see Disco scallops back on the counter.
With around 2,800 portions across 26 species there’s plenty to explore today. One of those mornings where being this close to the auction really pays off. A proper start to the week. Eat better fish.
Carpe piscem!
