Steamed Clams Recipe




Fresh solar slow cooker steamed clams on the beach !!

Here in the Pacific Northwest, one can experience a little bit of Heaven on a sunny Spring day during a low tide.

The Sun is out from behind the usually present clouds. It is warm enough that you can feel and enjoy your body unfolding in the welcome solar warmth. And it certainly does not smell like the inside of your car, or your office, or your home!

There is much more here to sniff and imagine. (Imagine Jimmy Buffet singing "Son of a Sailor")

But, for the energetic, and for the hungry, there are clams to dig. Maybe some mussels to collect. Oysters if you are very lucky!

It doesn't take long to harvest enough for lunch and you don't want to leave. It is soooo nice out! You kinda hate to wait until you are home to eat what you've gathered...

So, what to do?

Well, you don't have to DIG your own clams to enjoy steamed clams on your picnic. Nor do you even have to be near a clam bed.

You just need to know the location of fresh seafood counter to grab those clams in the shell and go forth, outside to your favorite retreat.

What follows is a very silly video on digging for clams in Arizona. Anything is possible!

And it tasted great, too!
