How do you steam fresh clams?
Steaming Clams Add one to two inches of water or your favorite beer (this adds bite) in a large steamer or pot and add clams. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and cover tightly. Steam clams for 3 to 5 minutes, until their shells open.
How long do you steam fresh clams?
Steam the clams on medium heat, with the lid on, for 5 to 7 minutes. Clams cook like popcorn: some cook faster than others. Stir or shake the pot during cooking so that all the clams have room to open up.
What to eat raw clams with?
To serve raw, place the opened oysters or clams on a bed of rock salt or crushed ice (to keep them from tipping over), with lemon wedges and a dipping sauce like mignonette.
Are raw clams healthy for you?
Clams are a very nutritious whole food with a host of health benefits. They are a lean source of protein; are rich in minerals, vitamins, and Omega- 3 fatty acids; they promote sexual health; and have been found to possess cancer-preventing properties.
Can I eat steamed clams while pregnant?
Seafood that is cooked and low in mercury, such as crab, lobster or shrimp can be eaten once a week. Other low mercury seafood includes oysters, clams, scallops, mussels and cockles. All seafood must come from a reliable supplier to avoid toxins and contaminants.
Can I have shellfish while pregnant?
Eating shellfish in pregnancy is generally safe as long as it's been cooked1. But if you're a fan of raw oysters, you might have to choose an alternative dish from the menu. Raw shellfish may be contaminated with harmful bacteria and viruses, and therefore carries a higher risk of food poisoning.
