Tips
Soak clam for hours in salt water (ie. if the clams were harvested from the sea), insert a metal spoon to speed up the sand expelling process. To prepare the clams simply scrub the shells after soaking and the sand has been expelled. Place the clams into the Happy Call pan with nothing else. Close the lid and cook it under medium low heat for approximately 5 mins (or when all the clam shells have opened up).
