How to choose fresh and delicious razor clams
- You should choose clams that are not chipped or broken, with a sandy yellow shell and a smooth, clear membrane visible.
- Choose to buy live clams, with the characteristic muddy and seafood smell.
- Only buy clams when you see them sticking out their tongues when they encounter water, as that indicates they are fresh.
- Razor clams, like other types of clams, will have a very unpleasant odor when dead, so you should absolutely not buy them.

Prepare the ingredients
Wash the scallions, chop them finely, separating the white part from the green part. Peel the shallots and slice them thinly.
To remove sand and eliminate the fishy smell from the razor clams, soak them in water with 3 sliced chilies for about 30 minutes, then take them out and rinse well.
Boil some water in a pot, and briefly boil the razor clams for about 5 minutes, then remove and let them drain.
How to clean razor clams from sand:
- Method 1: To make the razor clams release all the sand from their mouths, soak them in rice water with a few slices of chili for about 30 minutes.
- Method 2: Soaking the clams in diluted salt water for 1 – 2 hours can also help clean the sand inside the clams.
- Method 3: Blanching them in boiling water makes it easier to remove the clam meat from the shell and clean it.

Stir-fried razor clams with scallion oil
Add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil to a pan and heat over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add sliced shallots and finely chopped scallion tops to sauté until fragrant.
Next, add the briefly boiled razor clams and stir-fry for about 3 minutes until the clams are firm. Then season with 2 teaspoons of seasoning powder, 1/2 teaspoon of monosodium glutamate, and stir continuously for about 2 minutes to allow the clams to absorb the seasoning.
Taste and adjust the seasoning again to your preference, then add the chopped scallions, stir quickly once, and turn off the stove.
