White Wine Steamed Clams!! I am mean doesn’t that sound heavenly! I have done clams on the grill before but I really prefer to steam them because you can add more flavor to the clams as they cook!

I am thankful I have a buddy that has a cabin close to where we can go clamming. Even though its work to get the clams they taste so much better when you don’t have to go to the grocery store. Now we typically will get our clams on the first day we get to his cabin and then over the weekend keep changing out the water to the clams os they can keep spitting. The key to spitting is getting rid of the salt in the clams. I prefer to let mine spit for at least 24 hours before cooking (or freezing them). Then I bring them home in a 5-gallon bucket of fresh ocean water to cook at home that Sunday night.

See you can see how they are spitting!! The manilla clams are my personal favorites but you can do this any clams and White Wine!

White Wine Steamed Clams Recipe Ingredients:

- Clams
- White Wine
- Green Onions
- Minced Garlic
- Old Bay Seasoning
- 3 sticks Butter
- White wine

White Wine Steamed Clams Recipe Directions:

Allow your clams to spit so to remove some of the grain of sand out of them.

Prepare up in a bowl your chopped green onions, minced garlic, and Old Bay Seasoning to be ready to put in the pot.

In a large stock pot dump in your white wine and the seasonings. I let this sit for a bit while we seasoned some cod fillets and started up the grill for some oysters.

Turn your stock pot on to start the wine and seasonings start to warm up.

Dump out your clams into an over the sink and rinse them off one more time. I put my clams in the pot by hand sometimes you can catch some debris that way too from having dumped out your clams.

Once your clams are in your pot drop in your sticks of butter and cover on high.

Allow to steam cook for 15 to 20 minutes until your clams have opened up.

I allow mine to rest to soak in more flavor too.

Serve with melted butter and enjoy!!!

*Note when we store our leftovers I remove the shells and leave the clam meat in the remaining liquid to put in chowder*

This is what the clams stored in the broth from the White Wine Steamed Clams!! Trust me when I say this makes an amazing base for chowder!
