COCKLE CLAMS FARM RAISED

Experience the sweet, briny taste of fresh cockle clams, sustainably farm-raised to deliver consistent quality and flavor for your seafood dishes. These small, heart-shaped bivalve mollusks are prized in cuisines around the world for their tender texture and naturally sweet ocean taste that pairs beautifully with garlic, white wine, and fresh herbs. Cockle clams are incredibly versatile and quick-cooking, making them perfect for weeknight dinners and elegant entertaining alike. These farm-raised clams steam open in just minutes, revealing plump, succulent meat that works wonderfully in classic preparations like linguine alle vongole, Spanish paella, or Portuguese cataplana. You can also enjoy them simply steamed with butter and herbs, added to creamy chowders, or tossed into seafood pasta dishes. Their smaller size compared to littleneck clams makes them ideal for appetizers and tapas-style dishes where guests can easily enjoy them in one or two bites. When preparing cockle clams, give them a quick scrub under cold water and discard any that don't close when tapped. Steam them in white wine, broth, or beer until they pop open, typically 3-5 minutes. The flavorful cooking liquid makes an excellent base for sauces or can be sipped as a light broth. Popular in Mediterranean, Asian, and European coastal cuisines, cockle clams bring authentic seafood flavor to everything from Thai curry to Italian risotto, making them an essential ingredient for adventurous home cooks and seafood enthusiasts.
