WOW.
Unopened clams are usually fine to eat. I would imagine a publication like ATK would know this rather than perpetuate unscientific nonsense. Really guys?
Some mollusks open before they're safe to eat, some don't after cooking due to a strong muscle.
Separate those that don't open and check them. The smell will be obvious. How about we stop wasting food due to nonsense written in the 70's?
What kind of knife is she using here?
Fennel cores are edible,especially true of the smaller fennel bulbs

Love this authentic recipe. Wonderful memories of Algarve Summer vacations
We love,love,love the combination of any type of sausage with just about any type of seafood! Well done! That Cataplana is just beautiful.
Definitely need Portuguese bread with this!

What was the liquid she added? I couldn't understand what she said.
Great recipe:)))) The bread makes it a meal…
I want that copper pot!
Fyi (although I'm sure you guys already know this, but not all your viewers might): presunto is just the portuguese word for dry-cured ham, the same way that prosciutto is just the italian word for the same thing.
Portuguese here. Gread job, looks delicious!
Delicious, Julia!
Can't wait to makes this! It looks soo goood!
I gonna try this tomorrow, look delicious. For sure Julia can use her knife like a Samurai.
Time to make a nice meal – Clam it, shrimpy !!!
that‘s how americans learn about geography 😂
That definitely would be great with a nice mound of just cooked rice too!
Can't wait to makes this!! Thank you. Looks simple enough! 👍
In Portugal "Presunto" are all cured ham like Parma and Iberico, but in Brasil Presunto is also the cooked ham. Chouriço or Chorizo (Spain) are all the sausages and salamies. The word linguiça is also for sausage but is not common in Portugal, it is used here in Brasil. We don't use chouriço here for sausage and use the word salame as the italians.
I'd leave out the peppers, and fennel.
Wasteful way of prepping vegetables .
Looks delicious.
Fantastic ❤
جميل جدٱ ماشاء الله…..تسلم ايدك 🎉
"And the shrimp cook very quickly" "yes, nice"… So clever.
