    Great recipe but where do you get "fresh" mussels in Sweet Home? I ate a kilo of these in New Zealand, on my way back from the US. Off the rocks, in the pot and past me fangs. No tequila but a decent amount of vino blanco. Well done lass. RJ

    I am a huge mussel fan but never cooked them! Have a nice bottle of tequila in my pantry to give this one a shot. Thanks ;0)
