White Clam Porridge

I have a lot to say about white clams, so let me make it short. I hope you like what I have prepared for you.

White Clam Porridge

I saw a kind of seafood called white clams in the supermarket. After I bought it, I kept it in clean water to spit out the sand while thinking about how to make it. I decided to start with the simplest food, cooking white clam porridge, which is both convenient and delicious. Many seafood in Guangdong are eaten with white water and dipped in soy sauce. If you like the freshness of seafood, don't even dip it in soy sauce. The most primitive way to eat it is also the most delicious way. I was not sure about the pronunciation of xiǎn (xiǎn), so I looked it up in the dictionary. A mollusk with a shell shaped like a heart and ring-shaped patterns. It grows in freshwater soft mud. The meat is edible and the shell can be used as medicine. There are three types of clams: yellow, white, and black. Those born in the sea are white, those born in the sand are yellow, and those born in the river mud are black.
