I immediately regret watching this...I'm so hungry now. Awesome video, very thorough.

@MidichlorianGames1 Месяц назад

This is the best video explaining, from start to finish, razor clamming! I have watched dozens of videos and no other video explains so succinctly, with as thorough information explaining every step, yet very simple to process. Thank you so much for this! I can't wait to go clamming soon 😊

@outdoorcastironcook 26 дней назад

Thank You!!! I'm looking forward to digging some more clams as well.

@gwiyomikim5988 2 года назад

Great video! My Dad introduced me to razor clam digging, cleaning, and eating 60 years ago. I’m happy to see that I’m doing it right! And yes, fresh fried razor clams are the BEST!

@outdoorcastironcook 2 года назад

That is awesome! Have had many good memories of razor clamming with my Dad and brothers. Joanie & Dean OCIC

@chrisnystrom5751 8 лет назад

Thanks so much for this great video! My mouth watered from the time they hit the hot oil. I'm so inspired to give this a try.

Now, if only razor clam season would reopen here along the North Coast... Has been shut down for 3 years now, due to high toxin levels. (The ocean water has been too warm)

@saxson61 4 года назад

Thank you for an informative and likable video. You come across as very nice people. I enjoyed it immensely.

@outdoorcastironcook 3 года назад

Fred, Razor clams are my all time favorite seafood.... Clam season has been closed going on five years now, due to high toxin levels. I'm chomping at the bit to go dig some. Someday soon, I hope...

@katokhaelan4881 10 лет назад

Nice video. I really enjoy your channel.

@deandobbs2727 3 года назад

Awesome lesson! I’m on my way out west!

@outdoorcastironcook 3 года назад

Have fun! Just be sure to head to Oregon & Washington... Razor clamming is currently shut down in Northern California at Clam Beach, near McKinleyville and at Crescent City, due to toxin levels.

@Evan_Almighty556 6 лет назад

Awesome video! They look so tasty, never been clamming but I'm going to try it out this season.

I know this is a old vid but I’m stuck watching clam digging vids instead of out on the beach since the DA levels has WA clam digging shut down. Great vids keep up the good work

We're into our 4th year of razor clam shutdown, here in Northern California... Looking so forward to digging them again.

@michaelwardle7633 2 года назад

A breaded and fried pacific razor is legit the missing ingredient in a BLT. It catapults a so-so sandwich into top tier among the likes of Cubans and whatnot. Sooo delicious.

@Jayvy.Outdoors Год назад

I couldn’t reply to your question under my comment. Selling smelt has been part of the smelting tradition for as long as I can remember around here. Posting sales usually go up in FB, word of mouth, and way back when Craigslist was still popular. Lots of locals will sell right out of their house.

@Phyllisbuck 8 лет назад

I made linguine (fresh) and clams. Onion, garlic, olive oil, S + P. Deelish. Your cleaning description is very helpful. Thanks. Also I make a Vietnamese soup, with rice noodles, coconut milk, ginger garlic onion, and the best is with homemade shrimp stock from shells. You like it!

@outdoorcastironcook 8 лет назад

Thanks for the reply and sharing your favorite recipes. They both sound, and I'm sure, taste GReat! OCIC

@SuperDagod1 8 лет назад

Can you do this every single day all year. Yum

@outdoorcastironcook 8 лет назад

+SuperDagod1 We do try.....but clams are only in season certain times of the year, and we've used up our supply in the freezer. Currently, there is a ban on clamming here due to elevated toxins in them. OCIC

@juliannebollinger8662 6 лет назад

Jesus. That looks fun and tasty.

@outdoorcastironcook 6 лет назад

@outdoorcastironcook 6 лет назад

One of my favorite things to do, clamming. OCIC

@sephangelo4603 6 лет назад

Very tasty indeed and they look like breaded chicken fillet.

@meawoodsman8321 8 лет назад

I liked your video. Interesting, I live on the northeast coast and our razor clams look totally different. They're shaped like a closed straight razor used at a barber shop.

@outdoorcastironcook 8 лет назад

+Mea Woodsman And boy, can you slice a finger when you are digging down in the sand to retrieve one! Thanks for watching. OCIC

@Arzual 10 лет назад

That was awesome. Made my mouth all watery. To bad you cant do this stuff in germany. Greetings guys

@Metalistforlife 9 лет назад

@monsterrayray2030 10 лет назад

I'm surprised. That looked delicious after it was fried. I would love to try it. Maybe I'll ask my step dad.

@outdoorcastironcook 10 лет назад

We hope he says, "YES!" OCIC

@shepirate4651 6 лет назад

I've never heard of Pacific razor clams until yesterdays His & Hers vid! Now I cant wait to try them! I wonder if there is a place to get them in Houston? Great video :)

@outdoorcastironcook 6 лет назад

There may be a place, but the price and the freshness will probably be much different. Let us know if you find some there. OCIC

@PH020 10 лет назад

Yumm! I love razor clams but i cant seem to find any down in so cal, i live close to malibu n venice beach n have never found any here, are there any in southern California ? Any tips would be awesome Love your videos spe ially when you guys catch n cook , thnx for sharing great recipes

@PH020 9 лет назад

Can you guys do another one of these razor clam videos showing when the best time to go looking for these guys? Also if its possible to give us tips to where you can find these? I've never seen them in so cal

@davidregan9872 3 года назад

@therealchickentender 6 лет назад

Exactly how my fam has always done it - start to finish, except we don't bother with tenderizing the neck, and we just dredge from egg into flour with some salt & pepper, no breadcrumbs.

@outdoorcastironcook 6 лет назад

Sounds good to me. OCIC

@40ozmangi 3 года назад

god i want some fried clams...

@BDMOutdoors 10 лет назад

Better than the Dungeness Crabs? No way. If so, I'll make those razor clams tops on my bucket list.

@416asshole 6 лет назад

Do you not use the brown stuff between the body and digger? I didn't see it after full cleaning up.

@outdoorcastironcook 6 лет назад

No, that part can be toxic...

@williamfroh8830 6 лет назад

very good . went calming as a child but a different kind ours were round in New Jersey then we were told buy the state that they were contaminated and we could not eat them. what state are you in and do you need a license??? when is the season??? I'd like to plan a vacation around this

@outdoorcastironcook 6 лет назад

We haven't been allowed to razor clam in over 2 years now, because of harmful levels of domoic acid, an algae like toxin, due to warm water....

@kwhatten 6 лет назад

LOL, loved the "smell-o-vision" comment, looks delicious. What is the daily limit?

@outdoorcastironcook 6 лет назад

20 clams...

@SKyNeT948 10 лет назад

Cool never seen a razor clam can they be made into like blackened oysters?

@outdoorcastironcook 10 лет назад

Mostly done as we showed -- shelled. My Mom makes a variation like you asked about with a smaller type of clam known as a Martha Washington.

@trevorstone5271 7 лет назад

could you find some razor clams around St.Augustine Florida? because I'm going there in 5 days for my vacation

@outdoorcastironcook 7 лет назад

I am only familiar with the West Coast, but you should Google the area you are going to and see. Also find out about fishing license requirements and legal size limits. OCIC

@crabber59 8 лет назад

Nice vid, just wondering why none of your clam diggers was wearing gloves? When my friends&family go razor clamming here in Washington State we all wear nice fitting rubber gloves. That ocean water can be freezing at times.

@outdoorcastironcook 8 лет назад

+w ching You are right, the water can be so cold. You may notice in the webisode I do wear a glove on my shovel hand, but find I need to feel for the shell (carefully, of course, as they are "razor" sharp) with the other free of a glove. OCIC

@outdoorcastironcook 9 лет назад

Sheng Xiong We live off the bounty of the north coast.

@12groney 10 лет назад

Would these clams live on the east coast? I'd like to get some here!

@outdoorcastironcook 10 лет назад

I'm not sure... I've seen something similar in Britain, but they are more tubular shaped. But these are PACIFIC razor clams, so on the east coast they'd be a different type.

@taber1969 6 лет назад

Washingtonian here-Is this in NW?

@outdoorcastironcook 6 лет назад

Yes, the NW coast of California. OCIC

@lastniceguy1 6 лет назад

Wish you had shown more and talked about the "show". ;o(

@sophiaqi7020 8 лет назад

are there any limited amount of clams you can get from ocean, because i heard in australian local people can only get 6 lobster a day.

@outdoorcastironcook 8 лет назад

+Sophia Qi Our area allows 20 per day... Sounds like a lot, but there are only a handful of tides each year that are low enough to expose the clam beds.

@sleeksalmon 10 лет назад

using bacon grease to fry adds to the amazing flavor to the razor clam.... That's my familys take on it anyway...

@robertallen231 6 лет назад

..sounds like the real deal...gotta try!

@therealchickentender 6 лет назад

Heck yes. That's how we used to have'm. We'd eat them for breakfast cooked in the bacon fat. Clams, bacon and eggs. And the next morning it'd be perch, bacon and eggs. :)
