We attempted clamming a while back... and didn't catch many. Then we tried fishing... and didn't catch a thing. Third time is a charm, they say? It proved to be true!
Shane and Kaarin Johnson took us out to Ninilchik - and this time our harvest was plentiful! After clamming, we went back to the Johnson's, where they taught us to clean and can the clams. Now I understand why one of my friends swears that she will never learn to clean clams (there's no going back, I guess!). It really was a lot of work. We learned lots though (thank you Shane and Kaarin!)... and they really are delicious! Jacob made a New England Clam Chowder and my goal is to look up a recipe for a clam fettuccine!
