The usual variant in New England is made from whole soft-shell clams, known as "whole-bellies"; these include the clam's gastrointestinal tract and have a fuller flavor. [1] [6] Some restaurants remove the clam's chewy siphon called the neck. [5] Outside New England, clam strips, made of sliced Atlantic surf clams, are more common. [7]
Soft-shell clams are edible and can be used in a variety of dishes. Before cooking, it is generally recommended that clams be stored in saltwater for a few hours to facilitate the expulsion of sand from their digestive tracts. Some recommend that cornmeal be added to the water to give the clams something to filter from it.
The dish uses littlenecks or cherrystone clams. [4] Other basic ingredients include butter, peppers, bacon and garlic. [5] [6] Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper, white wine, lemon juice, and shallots or onion are also used. [7]
[7] [8] Canned, cooked, and frozen or fresh clams may be used, the latter of which can be cooked by steaming [6] or pan cooking.
