Razor clams are the long, straight-shelled bivalves named after the old cut-throat razor, sold live in the shell by weight. The meat is sweet, briny and fuller than a small clam, with a firm, tender bite that sits somewhere between clam and squid.
We keep them live at the Barnes counter. At home, purge them in cold salted water to clear any sand, and check they are alive before cooking: the flesh should twitch or the siphon pull back when touched.
Cook them fast. Sear them in a hot dry pan or under a full grill for one to two minutes until the shells open and the meat firms, then dress with garlic butter and parsley. Trim the dark sac before serving.
Cut to order
Tell us how you want it in the order notes. Filleting, pin-boning and skinning are free, by hand at the counter. If you ask for a fish to be trimmed, headed or skinned, the finished weight comes down accordingly.
Delivery and collection
