Ingredients
  • One professional fryolater ( eletrical or propane )
  • oil to fry
  • 5 lbs container of shucked clams, ready to use ( Ithink they might of come frozen in the container )
  • Standard Batter to fry: Increase recipe as needed, Mix all together:
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup milk or beer
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp salt

Directions
  1. Heat up the oil in the fryolater ( 375-400F )
  2. It may take about 30 minutes to get to the right temp- all depends how large the fryolater, and how much oil used
  3. Have your batter ready in the bowl and a paper towel or wax paper lined platter to receive the fried clams
  4. With a slotted spoon, take some clams from the container and drop into the batter, swish them around and make sure they are coated well
  5. With tongs, retrieve clams , and place a few at a time into the hot oil and do not crowd.
  6. He did not shake off any excess batter as the batter was not overly thick, more like a pancake batter than a waffle batter in texture
  7. Fry and turn on both sides to fry puffed and golden, remove with tongs and place on platter
  8. This only takes a few minutes!!
  9. These had a puffy, light and golden coating and were not overly crunchy
  10. People loved them this way

Interesting post. I am learning alot on this group!


Wonderful post fantastic thanks high5


I got lucky at a flea market and found a double fryer, with four baskets and and a 40 pound propane tank for $75. Will have to try a heavy battered clam as I use this style batter for onions and leek boats.
