Their breeding

The mussels of the Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel are raised on Bouchot, this large wooden stake planted in the ground and which, by the phenomenon of the tides allows the mussels to be both in the air and in the water for a period of 12 to 18 months. This production technique, used on a good part of the French coast, allows to obtain mussels of average size (approximately 4 cm), but resistant and with a particular savour.each Bay thus gives, with the same technique, a different product and it is in the respect of this Bay of the Mont-Saint-Michel that our product gained its titles of nobility, with mussels of orange yellow color, unctuous and a melting flesh with a slightly sweetened savour: an unequalled product. The conditions were therefore all met to obtain the Protected Designation of Origin: a product, a land and men …Good to know: Rich in calcium, iron and iodine, you will find our A.O.P.* mussels in your plates from July to February.

Un petit passage à Saint Malo. Les remparts et le bord de mer est magnifique. Par contre je ne savais pas que la ville à été détruite à 80% pendant la seconde guerre mondiale et ça se ressent. #saintmalo #saintmalotourisme #saintmalointramuros #saintmalomaville #vacances #holidays #igersfrance #super_france #hello_france #pictoftheday #instagood #instagram#roadtrip #france4dreams #traversefrance #Loves_united_life #loves_united_europe #ig_alls #FranceMyLove #bestcitiesofeurope #bretagne #bretagne_focus_on #bretagnetourisme
