Exclusive mussel cream with curry – A touch of exoticism meets Breton tradition

This innovative mussel cream combines the authentic taste of Breton Bouchot mussels with a refined curry note for an exceptional culinary experience. The creamy spread impresses with its harmonious composition of briny marine notes and subtly exotic spices, making every aperitif a special moment.

Inspiration from maritime history

The recipe draws on a centuries-old culinary tradition from La Rochelle, where resourceful chefs refined classic Moules Marinières with exotic spices brought back by sailors from their voyages to India. This historical fusion of European cuisine and oriental flavors is reflected in every spoonful of this special cream.

Flavor profile and ingredients

The mussel cream is distinguished by its rich content of Bouchot mussels, which give the spread its characteristic oceanic flavor and typical briny note. Red bell peppers and roasted onions add further depth of flavor, while a hint of curry and coconut milk lends an exotic touch. The result is a creamy, mildly spicy taste experience with a subtly hot finish.

Nutritional value and health benefits

Mussels are naturally rich in valuable omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin B12. They also provide important trace elements such as iron, zinc, selenium, and magnesium. This mussel cream therefore offers a delicious way to benefit from the health advantages of seafood.

Versatile use

This spread is easy to apply to toasted bread, crackers, or puff pastry bites, transforming any aperitif into a unique culinary experience. Its creamy texture and balanced flavor make it the perfect accompaniment for social gatherings and special occasions.
