About Clams casino
Clams Casino is a classic American appetizer originating from Italian-American cuisine, first popularized in the early 20th century. This dish consists of clams on the half shell topped with a savory mixture of breadcrumbs, butter, garlic, parsley, peppers, and bacon, then baked until golden. While the clams themselves provide a good source of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential minerals like iron and selenium, the additional ingredients can increase the calorie and fat content. Bacon and butter contribute saturated fat, while breadcrumbs may add refined carbohydrates. Despite these indulgent additions, Clams Casino can be a flavorful treat and a unique way to enjoy nutrient-rich shellfish. Opting for whole-grain breadcrumbs, reducing butter, or incorporating leaner proteins can enhance its nutritional profile for a healthier version.
