  • Start by cooking the mussels; clean them and cut them into pieces, then chill them in the fridge for 20–30 minutes. Meanwhile, wash and peel the apples, cut them and carefully remove the cores and seeds, then grate them into a bowl. If your walnuts are whole, shell them and finely chop the kernels, and add them to the grated apple. Next, fold in the well-chilled mussels and the green peas. Slice the onion into half-rings and add it to the salad. Season with salt and pepper and fold in the mayonnaise. Mix everything well, chop the parsley, and scatter it evenly over the top. That's it—the mussel salad is ready to serve. The only trick is resisting the urge to eat it all on the way from the kitchen to the table.
