Listening to the secret of the sea, the clam made the clam clean with no sand left

The fastest way to clean clams

Put the clams in a bowl of water and soak for about 1 hour to open them. Then stir vigorously with your hands to wash the sand and dirt on the outside and the clam out.

Then, you put the clam in an airtight container, add some water, cover, shake vigorously. If you don't have a box, you can use two pots facing up.

Shake your hand vigorously about 5 times, clam will automatically release all the sand.

At this time, you only need to rinse the clams several times with clean water to be ready for processing.

Soak clams with chili salt water

After buying the clams, we clean the clams with cold water, then take a basin of water mixed with white salt, add 2 chopped peppers. Next, put the clams into the solution and soak for about 1-2 hours, the clams will release all sand and grit. Then rinse thoroughly and process.

Soak in warm water

To save time cleaning the clams, you can also soak them in warm water. This method requires a suitable temperature of about 50 degrees Celsius. If the temperature is too high, the clam will be cooked.

In water with a temperature of 50 degrees, clam will feel dangerous and will protect itself to absorb more water, so sand release activities will be accelerated. It usually takes only 10 minutes to have clean clams to prepare the dish.
