Fried Razor Clams image

A simple recipe for fried razor clams, a western Washington treat. Sometimes I fry the bodies, reserving the tougher necks for chowder. Dip in cocktail sauce. The spicier the better for me!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my clams were tough and chewy.

The clams were a little sandy, but the flavor was good. I'll try cleaning them better next time.

These fried razor clams were a hit at my party! They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The dipping sauce was also delicious.
