Interesting that many here steam hard shell clams prior to freezing. Nana would turn in her grave if I ever did that

If freezing is in a clam’s future at Chez Roccus, they get shucked, cut up, and tossed into the juices reserved through the entire process. It’s a superior product to clams frozen after cooking IMO.

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
