An esteemed reader told me his partner was a bivalve vegan after reading my first newsletter on spaghetti aglio e olio, before exclaiming “so perfecting that pasta to then add clams or mussels to is great!” I’ve had many aspirations in sharing these newsletters, but chief among them was ensuring excellent spousal relations, so thank you esteemed reader. What might surprise you and others to know is that I too was once a “bivalve vegan” and have a particular fondness for the mussel, which I will now share a few words on; quickly like the manner in which they are cooked, and with the knowledge that this will not be the last time they are discussed nor consumed.
