How to choose delicious fresh clams
- Choose clams with intact shells, not broken. Because if the outer shell is damaged, it is easily infected, negatively affecting health.
- Choose those that still open their mouths, and when you touch them, they slowly close their mouths.
- For clams that have been shelled, choose those that are still hot or warm, proving that they have just been harvested.
- Smell them to detect a fragrant clam odor, without any unusual foul or sour smell.
- Do not choose clams that are too large or too small; select those that are of moderate size for the best taste.
- If the clams have an unusual foul smell, do not buy them.
