However, these little shellfish rarely get talked about compared to more popular seafood options such as oysters and shrimp. While allergies to crustacean species of shellfish like crab, shrimp, and lobster are more common, some people are allergic to mollusk species too ( 18).

In a non-reactive saucepan bring the vinegar, along with all the remaining ingredients, to the boil for sufficient time as to dissolve the sugar and salt flakes. Allow to cool a little. You do not have to buy 20 cases of the same product to get the 20 case rate. You can mix and match.Prepare the shellfish as directed in the Notes. These may be made ahead and refrigerated or just allowed to cool to room temperature. Preparing whelk meats: Scrub the worst of the dirt off the shells then soak the whelks in several changes of cold water for about 20 mins. Put the whelks in a large saucepan and cover with cold water (you can add a few aromatics if you like: bay leaves, peppercorns, a splash of vinegar, thyme sprigs etc.). Bring to the boil, uncovered, and once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer gently for 10 mins. Drain through a colander and, when cool enough to handle, use a small fork to twist out the meats. With a small, sharp knife slice away the hard calciferous disc at the meaty end of the whelk and trim away the dark innards from the 'tail' end that has been curled up in the far end of the shell and can be a bit gritty. The remainder of the meat may be eaten immediately, or stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 days or in the freezer for up to a month. Based on 45 samples, the mercury levels ranged from 0.032 mg to 0.077 mg per kilogram. This is equal to 32-77 mcg per kilogram and 0.032-0.077 mcg per gram, which is well within recommended levels.

Among these, they are one of the most significant dietary sources of vitamin B12. Just 100 grams provides 52.27 mcg of B12, equal to 2188% of the recommended daily value for the vitamin ( 2). Excessive mercury intake can potentially lead to mercury toxicity, which depletes selenium availability and impairs the function of important enzymes in the human body. These effects can lead to oxidative damage and a range of potential adverse effects ( 5, 6).
