NOTE:
Go easy on the kimchee base as it can get very salty. You can mix the kimchee base and mayo in a big bowl first and adjust the taste to your liking before mixing it with seafood mixture
Have fun making this, it’s so easy and doesn’t take long to bake either but it does take forever to prep which is why I suggest yoh use a food processor for a quicker way to chopped them seafood and veggies 🥰
Clean your mussels. Remove the beards, scrub the shell back and front, and I remove the black “poop” looking thingy on the mussels because it grosses me out but it’s not necessary as they are harmless 😅
