]]>Not only are mussels delicious, but they can also be considered one of the ocean’s top superfoods! Here’s why.
They’re Rich in Selenium
While we might not typically associate antioxidants with shellfish, mussels are packed full of selenium, one of the most powerful ones that your body can use. In addition to helping metabolism and thyroid function, they also help destroy free radicals in your body.
They’re Packed with Protein
Did you know that a whopping 25% of mussels by weight is protein? That’s right, mussels aren’t only low fat, they also contain huge portions of protein. In fact, eating just 200 grams of them satisfies your recommended daily intake of this crucial nutrient!
like yesterday but if you know @capetown then you know the weather. It can change in a moment. Yesterday was the perfect day to eat this picture, sunny and yummy with a glass
of your fav and warm crusty bread 
or frites 
Here’s a quick recipe if you wanna give it a whirl
In a large pot sauté an onion with chili 
garlic 
and the zest of 1 lemon 
add 5ml salt and ground pepper. Add 1/2 cup of cream and 1/2 cup white wine, simmer for 6 minutes, then add the cleaned mussels, pot lid on and steam until all all the shells have opened. Add a handful of freshly chopped parsley, stir and serve

In addition to selenium and protein, mussels contain a big dose of iron. This mineral is crucial for our health, helping our body make hemoglobin—a protein that helps transport oxygen from the lungs to body tissues.

The plant mostly grows in France, Morocco, and Turkey today. You can find and buy it, but it’s not as common as some other grains. Einkorn can be used pretty much like any other grain. The best way is to mill it into flour (or just buy einkorn flour), that way you can use it in many different dishes. Whenever a recipe calls for white flour, you can swap with einkorn. Try making bread and use is for sandwiches, we’re sure you’re going to love the combination.
The flavor of einkorn is somewhat nutty and definitely deeper than typical wheat flavor. Einkorn flour works best in comforting desserts like pancakes or banana bread. Try it yourself and you’ll never go back!
