The weather is getting hotter, seafood is getting more and more, I love small seafood, especially shellfish. Like razor clams, various unnamed snails, and clams. Clams are considered to be the most common on the summer table. Stir fry, cold salad, soup, barbecue, they are all quite delicious. Clams are not very eye-catching, but they contain a variety of nutrients, high in protein, high in trace elements, high in iron, high in calcium, and less fat. Its taste is salty and cold, has the functions of nourishing yin and moisturizing dryness, diuresis and swelling, softening and dispelling lumps. It can also be used for the conditioning of insomnia and other diseases, especially for lymphadenopathy and goiter. Eating in accordance with the season not only has a price advantage, but more importantly, it has great benefits for people's health. I especially like the special salty taste of clams. After eating, the aftertaste has a particularly refreshing feeling, and the troubles disappear instantly.
Although clams are delicious, sometimes they are full of mud and sand, which is very annoying. Let me talk about how to clean clams first
The first step, of course, is to choose the clams. Choose the kind of tongue that comes out, and it will retract when you touch it with your hand. It is fresh. After buying it, wash it several times with running water until the water is not turbid.
In the second step, add an appropriate amount of edible salt to a basin of water, and then add a few drops of peanut oil, stir to melt the salt. Pour the cleaned clams into light salt water. The clams will stick out their tongues after soaking them for a while. After soaking for about 1-2 hours, the clams will spit out the mud and sand, and then take them out and rinse them out and cook them. If you can't soak overnight, the clams will become hungry and thin.
In addition, in order to prevent the clams from sucking back the spit out sand again, when soaking, you can put the clams in the water filter basket, and then place the water filter basket on the water basin to keep the water filter basket at a distance of four or five centimeters. . In this way, the sand spit out by the clams will sink to the bottom of the basin and will not be sucked back again.
