Littleneck Clams
50 clams. Live.
Littleneck clams, also known as small cherrystone clams, or small quahogs, receive their name "littleneck" for the spiral-shaped point near the valve of the shell. The meat is tender when served raw on the half shell. You can also try them in pasta dishes (linguini vongole), steamed, or fried. Check out our recipes for Steamed Clams or Bouillabaisse Sauce for additional inspiration.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION/CARE: Product is live. Discard clams that have broken or are open. Store in the fridge upon receipt, covered in damp towels or paper. DO NOT store in fresh water or ice. Do not store in air tight plastic containers or bags. Best when prepared the day of arrival.
