1, the clams should first be repeatedly rinsed clean with running water, and then slightly rubbed by hand to remove the silt on the shell.
2, if there are places where hand washing can not be removed, you can use a harder brush a little bit of brush off.
3, soak the clams to make them spit out sand, the water in which the clams are stored is usually very turbid, and the clams bought back will contain a lot of sediment, so this time you can not just brush the surface of the clams, but soak the clams in the water for a period of time (about 2 - 3 hours).
4, in the soaking of clams in the water is best to put a moderate amount of salt, so that the clams will be easier to adapt to, can be faster to spit sand.
5, add sesame oil helps clams spit water.
6, when soaked to a certain extent, the clams will open their own mouths to spit sand and breathe, which can remove most of the sediment inside the clams, and then eat it will not feel gritty. When washing or soaking clams, do not use meal wash or other detergents, otherwise it will contaminate the clams.
