Kaffir Cream Clams

Party
Seafood

Calling all seafood lovers❗️If you’re all for clams doused in a rich, creamy sauce, this one’s for you!

Most people think clams are difficult to cook, but they really aren’t! All it requires is the extra step of brining the clams and after that, it’s just like cooking any other dish. Plus, this dish is cooked easily in one-pot to reduce the cleaning up! 

So if you’re new to cooking clams, try this out! And if you like your gravy rich and thick, we recommend adding the thickened cream from Bulla!
