About our Regenerative Seafood

The Fish Market

Pesky Fish

Ben King and Teddy Whitall

With the fishing industry lacking the leadership to aspire for anything greater than ‘sustainability’, Pesky was founded by Ben in 2018 to actively regenerate fish stocks and the marine environment. Growing to become the largest consumer fish market in the UK, Pesky’s fleet soared to over 100 boats following its partnership with the magnificent Whitfish in South Wales in 2022. While incredibly lucky to have had an incredible network of loyal buyers sourcing from their market, Pesky hit a road block in their daily fish market, given consumer’s constant demand for fish with a fleet that is only able to get out fishing 150 days of the year. Therefore, to continue on its path towards a regenerative fishing industry, Whitfish have pioneered a blast freezing process that enables them to source fish at its best quality, when its naturally abundant and season and when it’s at its most accessible price.
Storage & Prep

Packaging

Cook and consume your mussels within 2 days of delivery.

Fridge Life

Mussel optimal storage temperatures are from 4-7°C. Freezing will kill them! Keep them in your fridge until just before cooking.

Storage & Use

Upon receiving at home, we recommend emptying the bag into a colander, giving them a gentle rinse, drain, and pop in the fridge until you're ready to prepare that evening, ensuring they are stored in such a way that any excess liquid drains to the bottom and does not contaminate any other food. Do not store the mussels re-immersed in water. This may kill them.

If mussels are not tightly closed or do not rapidly close when tapped they are dead and should not be used. Discard cracked, broken or dead mussels. Mussels with visual anomalies (e.g. an odd colour or ‘cloudiness’) or malodour should be discarded.;.

Contrary to kitchen lore, mussels whose shells do not open after cooking can still be consumed - just gently pry open with a knife. You can find more preparation tips here: www.bbcgoodfood.com/howto/guide/how-cook-mussels.
