Cleaning the mussels is indeed very troublesome, the mussels in the process of cleaning will be shrunken. But don't worry about the mussels at this time, it shrinks into the mussels, it is usually placed in the water inside five minutes or so, he will stretch out on his own. Or you can add some salt to the water, slowly he will come out. This time then go to clean up on it
