Portuguese Steamed Clams

“Being of Portuguese decent and raised in Rhode Island along the Eastern seaboard, this recipe is a wonderful combination of my two heritages. If desired serve with a small cup of melted butter for dipping clams and don't forget a fresh loaf of warm, crusty bread!!! Note: If the clams seem sandy, soak them for a couple of hours or overnight in the refrigerator in salted water with a bit of vinegar, cornmeal, and cayenne pepper.”

Great recipe. Very easy to follow and delicious. There are only two of us, so I only used 2 pounds of clams, but same amount of broth and worked great and lots of broth afterward. We also added 4 cloves of garlic and used ground chorizo instead of the kind you cut. I browned the chorizo before adding the rest of the ingredients and the clams.

Hubby thought this was absolutely fabulous! Used beer instead of wine, added small red potatoes and a few red pepper flakes. Thank you Star!

I liked this so much I built a food list around it! Brings back memories of the summers we spent in the New Bedford area. My Polish meat-and-potatoes loving husband would never eat a clam, but the rest of us love it.

I'm not a big steamer fan, but I made this for guests last night and they couldn't get enough of it! Everyone loved it. Served with dilled shrimp, restaurant-style house salad, old boy's strawberry pie all from this web site. Also had lobsters. Oh! And lightly steamed then chilled asparagas drizzled with raspberry vinagrette dressing from this site. GREAT meal - especially these steamers!

Absolutely wonderful.. I also added a couple of large chunks of celery while steaming.. You can grill thick slices of crusty bread rubbed with a clove of garlic to dip in the tasty juices..
