My thoughts:
One of the things I dearest best most living inwards the Mid-Atlantic is all of the seafood. We bear hold oysters, clams, crabs also equally fifty-fifty scallops available that bear hold been harvested from less than ii 1/2 hours from where I live. I was lucky enough to abide yesteryear these Chesapeake, Va clams right inwards the seafood segmentation of my local grocery store. I scooped them upward also equally brought them family to build this i pot meal. It was also equally thence slow yet also equally thence delish! Clams build the repast look special, precisely honestly, it was quicker than most weeknight meals I make. Tossing inwards the corn also equally radishes totally eliminated the ask for a side dish.Pro tip: Use a spider (or large slotted spoon, precisely I prefer the spider) to scoop the clams also equally vegetables out of the pot to serve also equally bear hold assist to agree for whatever lost clams at the bottom of the pot. I abide yesteryear littleneck clams build their way out their shells much more than easily than larger clams or mussels.
