Rate this topic


Recommended Posts

I saw these at stop and shop today. They were like 4 lbs. for 2 bucks. Has anyone ever tried them for roasting or half shell. I love littlenecks and these look the same size but I find the price to good to be true. I didn't buy them today because i needed clams for party, and did not want my friends to be guinea pigs. Lets here your thoughts on them. Thanks, Dave

I've bought em twice and didn't like them both times. I used them in a gumbo and in a Zuppa de Pesce (sp?). Both times I found them to have a stronger, fishier flavor and a lot of sand.

 

Spook, do you think I just got some bad ones? How do you prepare them???

They are good in sauce......I throw some in when I make "NJ style" mussles marinara (Hot type!).....just make sure they are all fresh (closed) when you buy them......definately are cheap enough.....

I had them just the other night, as they were on sale for $1.99/lb. They are good in marinara sauce with mussels, but I wouldn't eat them on the half....
