Quick and Easy Thai Razor Clams with Green Peppercorns - Recipe
By Alexander Ross
In Asia, razor clams are known as bamboo clams, because they look something like the fast-growing plant. They have sweet, tender meat and are easy to prepare - detach the body from the shell, and, without cutting it in half, slit the body lengthwise down the centre from one end to another. Squeeze out and discard the green-grey gooey stuff, then pull out the intestine. Rinse the clam meat under cool, running water, then drain and pat dry with paper towels.
Fresh green peppercorns are sold at shops specialising in southeast Asian ingredients. If you can't find them, use about one tablespoon of dried green peppercorns - but not the type in brine.
