Product description

New Zealand's Storm Shell is harvested in the deeper regions of the surf zone, 4 to 8 meters, with a total meat to shell ratio of more than 30%. The storm clam is unique in the world of shellfish. Ideal for use in single servings on the half shell, or alone as meat and tongue. The storm clam is versatile, interesting, and unique. 

The Storm Clam has two distinctly different flavors. The long, white tongue has a deep, rich aroma of fresh cream and a sweet, clean flavor of fresh scallop. The body has a deep, robust sea kelp aroma and an intense shellfish flavor, reminiscent of sea urchin and crayfish. The tongue had the texture of fresh calamari, the body has a deep, full texture with a firm bite when cooked.
