Kono Mussels

What better way to impress the whanau this summer than with some great flavoured kai moana – and how much better would it be if you could pick it up from the supermarket?

Fresh from the pristine waters of the Marlborough Sounds, KONO flavoured halfshell mussels are seasoned using natural ingredients from Aotearoa – Lime and Kawakawa, Chilli and Horopito, Manuka Smoke and Kelp and Garlic Butter.

They only take two minutes to heat, leaving you more time to hang out at the beach!

“Our flavoured halfshell mussels are the only heat and eat mussels available in New Zealand. We have seasoned them with our own Pacific flavours with no additives or preservatives.

We grow our mussels using totally organic and environmentally sustainable farming methods. They are low in fat and carbohydrates and packed with protein and the health benefits of Omega 3 — this is food for the body and the soul,” says KONO Marketing Manager, John Grant.

Maori owned KONO halfshell mussels are beautifully succulent and juicy, harvested daily and snap frozen for your ease and convenience. They are healthy, nutritious, and so convenient to prepare — whether you are looking for a snack to heat in the microwave, cook on the BBQ, or as a tasty addition to a main meal.

“You can easily impress the whanau with a plate piled high of KONO Mussels in their shells, or you can eat them as a quick, healthy alterative after a hard day,” says John.

So, if you are in a rush and want a delicious and healthy option, treat yourself to KONO mussels. Just heat for a couple of minutes in our microwave proof packet and they are ready to go —steamed perfectly in their own juices!
