Big, succulent and full of flavour, our Japanese Mussels are harvested from various coasts of Chile and processed in Japan before being flash-frozen and air-flown to Singapore. Pre-shucked and ready to cook, they are a wonderful addition for pasta, paella, soup or with rice. Broil, steam or pan-fry them any way you like.
Here are a few ways to enjoy our Japanese Mussels:
Japanese-Style Baked Mussels
- Mix Japanese mayonnaise with sriracha, a touch of soy sauce, sugar and capelin fish roe (masago) or parmesan cheese
- Place the Japanese Mussels on a baking sheet and spoon the sauce over them
- Broil or bake at 200°C for 5 – 10 minutes until bubbling and golden brown
- Garnish with some chilled caviar and finely chopped green onions for a luxurious finish
Sake-Steamed Mussels (Sakamushi)
- Sauté aromatics like ginger and garlic with a little oil in a pan
- Add the Japanese Mussels, pour in a generous amount of sake and cover with a lid
- Steam for 3 – 5 minutes then add a splash of soy sauce or miso paste
- Garnish with green shiso leaves or green onions
Mussels Mixed Rice (Takikomigohan)
- Place soaked rice in a rice cooker
- Add dashi stock or the liquid from steamed mussels, sake, soy sauce and ginger
- Place the Japanese Mussels on top and cook using the normal rice cycle
