SHELLS IN WHITE WINE

Indulge yourself, friends and family with this amazing and simple starter. Seafood is a good source of vitamins, minerals and omega-3 fats and eating one portion of seafood per week can reduce the chances of suffering a heart attack. For this recipe we chose mussels and razor shells.
Mussles are rich in selenium, iron, folic acid, vitamin A, vitamin B12, iodine and zinc. High level of chemical iodine might have a positive impact on people with sub-optimal thyroid function. Razor shells are culinary delicacy, but sometimes it may be difficult to find them. We wish you luck in fish market, otherwise we suggest that you substitute them with clams or Noah’s Ark shells.
For the special occasion like Christmas we decided to cook in white wine. Enjoy your meal, comment down below and tell us how you like this recipe.
