hello
mussels ,walk the coast ,ask questions,assess the biological challenge by observation of the other coastal life
basic rule is as far from a sewer/polluted river as possible ,
oyster collection is outside my experiance
if you want a tasty ,safe meal limpets are ace if a bit chewy ,either cook fast or very slowly ,they graze so tend not to aquire a toxic load of anything
cockles and razor clams are pretty safe ,whelks are high risk ,winkles are inbetween re risk from bio/chemical hazard
if i was in need of a snack sugar wrack and limpets would be on my list as first choice until i knew the coast
avoid coasts with an industrial legacy if there is a big heavey metal or radiological load (i wont eat anything from devon to scotland and north sea fish are a rarity),there are local issues as well which one should assess on their facts |
