Fangst Blåmusling No. 2 Blue Mussels Smoked are ranked #49 on the Overall 101 list at worldbestfish.com.

In the cold water of the Danish inlet Limfjorden, ‘blåmuslinger’ (blue mussels) grow slow to acquire a particularly fine taste and texture. Most of them are then shipped off to foreign kitchens but some we keep for ourselves. These Fangst tinned mussels have been smoked with beech wood and preserved in cold pressed rapeseed oil. This is not the industrially produced highly refined canola you may have negative associations with, this is locally grown heritage rapeseed cold pressed to retain all of the benefits of flavor.

110g tin

These are delicious! The flavor is rich and the smokiness is not overpowering. The mussels are quite small but so great on a baguette with tomato and avocado.

Unbelievable quality. The ideal tin for people who *truly love the flavor of mussels* and want that pure, unadulterated experience. I didn’t even want to eat these on crostini, I only added a few flakes of salt. The texture was so medium-soft perfect with absolutely zero graininess, chewiness, mushiness at all. The oil was so extraordinary that I couldn’t resist drinking it after the mussels were gone. Every bite was an ideal, consistent, flavorful experience.

I don’t know of a better pure, no-other-flavors-in-the-tin mussel. The Fangst no. 2 mussels are so absolutely different in flavor than the no. 1 mussels that they’re impossible to compare, except in overall quality of the mussels/tin itself. This particular tin is easily in my top 3 tins of mussels alongside the lemon Patagonia and the Fangst no. 1 … I strongly, strongly recommend this splurge.
