About Baby clam
Baby clams are small, tender shellfish prized for their delicate flavor and versatility in cooking. A staple in many coastal cuisines, they are commonly featured in Italian, Asian, and Mediterranean dishes, including soups, pastas, stir-fries, and chowders. Nutritionally, baby clams are packed with protein, making them an excellent source of lean dietary protein. They are rich in essential nutrients like vitamin B12, iron, zinc, and selenium, which support energy levels, immune function, and healthy metabolism. Additionally, they contain omega-3 fatty acids, beneficial for heart health. Low in fat and calories, baby clams can easily fit into various diets, though they are moderately high in sodium, which may be a concern for individuals managing sodium intake. These shellfish are a sustainable choice when harvested responsibly, offering a flavorful and nutritious addition to any meal.
