About this item

Large live clams with plump meat and very little sand, so a quick rinse under cold water is all the prep they need. They open in minutes in a hot wok or a covered pot and release a briny liquor worth keeping in the pan for a sauce. Good for a garlic stir-fry, a sake steam or a simple broth with spring onion. Tap any that stay open before cooking; a live clam closes on its own, and the ones that do not should go straight in the bin.
