Perfect Fried Clams Recipe: Crispy & Golden

The most crucial component of this recipe for fried clams is the batter. To make it, mix cornmeal and flour to create a crispy, light texture. Cornmeal adds that traditional crunch, and flour helps the batter stick. Season the flour and cornmeal mixture with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. This gives the clams a lovely golden-brown color and intensifies their flavor. In contrast to the crispy coating, the clams remain tender due to the use of buttermilk in the marinade. For optimal results, coat the clams in egg to hold the breading. Then dip them in flour to form … Read more

Best Oven-Baked Crab Legs Recipe

Step-By-Step: Baked Crab Legs Step 1: Preheat Your Oven Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (204°C). This temperature strikes the perfect balance so the crab legs heat evenly while preserving their moisture, preventing them from becoming dry. Step 2: Prepare the Crab Legs If the crab legs are frozen, be sure to thaw them properly. You can do this by leaving them in the fridge overnight or by running cold water over them for about 10-15 minutes.

Authentic Thai Recipe – Shrimp Chili Dip and Morning Glory with Fresh Coconut Cream

1. Shrimp Chili Dip (นำ้พริกกุ้งสด) “Nam Prik Goong Sot” Nam prik goong, or “Shrimp Chili Dip” is very similar to the Central Thai-style dish of nam prik ga-pi, but here we are making a recipe that can be useful as an entire dish on its own (whereas its normally just a dipping sauce). The Southern style recipe uses more roughly cut ingredients (instead of finely mashing them), and also dry roasts the shrimp paste (Ga-pi) on its own before crumbling it into the mixing bowl. The first time my mother-in-law made this dish, it blew my mind – and years … Read more
