Clam Meat
Clam meat is a lean, briny-tasting shellfish harvested from both hard- and soft-shell mollusk species. This tender yet slightly chewy protein source is notably rich in iron for oxygen transport and vitamin B12 for nerve function, while remaining low in fat. Commonly used in chowders, pasta dishes, or steamed preparations, raw clam meat requires thorough cooking to ensure food safety and maximize its oceanic flavor profile. As a shellfish, it carries common allergen risks but provides a sustainable seafood option when responsibly sourced.
