Whats on tonights Menu

Yep
I agree and DON'T put me in the group of "many here" LOL ??
1. The only time I ever freeze any clams is if they are already cooked and stuffed into a shell for baked clams to be eaten at
a later date or leftover chowder to eat later
2. I don't do it, and don't understand steaming clams to open them?? ?‍♂️?‍♂️ I have a clam knife for opening clams to eat on the half shell or cook with. The only time I steam clams is if I want to eat them as steamed clams. If we are cooking
something with them, they need to start out as raw, not as pre-steamed
Never included you, as you also know well enough that soaking hard shell clams in anything prior to using doesn’t do squat to purge them of sand, like some think.

Actually if I’m putting up stuffed clams, oysters Rockefeller, or either of those 2 with my garlic butter PhD topping, they get opened, topped/mixed with the goodies and frozen in large Tupperware containers with plastic wrap in between layers. This way I can pluck out however many I want and pop them into a 450 F oven for 15 min.

Hate to cook bivalves more than 1 time…

I also thought you had to soak them, so they can purge themselves.
