Title: How to eat raw live bamboo shellfish clams
Post by: goodsamaritan on February 01, 2010, 10:50:03 pm: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAKUO71mDd0

This is how I eat live bamboo shellfish clams. I bought these at 12 noon and dunked them in a brine solution so they can spit out their mud. It is 7pm, dinner time.

My 8 year old boy is my videographer.

My 2 younger kids amazed and having fun with the live bamboo shellfish. Their appendage goes out and in. Priceless expression on my 6 year old boy.

Each one tastes very different from one another.
I like clams, oysters and these bamboo shellfish clams raw.
Mussels I get don't taste too good raw.

In french, it is "couteau de mer" (solenidae : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Razor_shell). I'll try that next time.
What is the brine solution you use GS ?

The market vendor said to just dissolve a lot of sea salt in water so it is saltier than ocean water so that the clams spit out their mud.

Mussels... I have not found a clean source of mussels yet.

I eat sea clams, but learned to wash it with fresh water if it is too salty.

No. Just me.
Kids and wife eat a cooked meat / rare / raw meat paleo diet plus rice.
They do raw paleo diet when they are sick.
Still pushing for RPD for kids, will get there soon.
