Food challenge contest week #95 || For kids and parents || How to prepare Clam pepper soup.

This is my first time participating in this contest, and I want to thank @steemkidss for organizing this, I would love to first of all invite, @zekanem @chinelohannah, @vudeme123 to join this contest. Stay with me as I show you how I made my clam pepper soup.

Have you eaten clams before?, and tell me about your experience with it.

INGREDIENTS

• Clams
• Fresh pepper
• Salt
• Maggi
• Cray fish etc.

STEPS INVOLVED.

Step 1.

We first of all of course put our clams in the water, this is so that they don't die.

Step 2.

Now it's time to open the shell, this is quite difficult, but a simple way to do it is to use a knife to put in between them and crack it open at both ends.

Step 3.

After we have successfully opened the shell, before removing the clam from the shell, we remove their worms, it's always at the anus area, I came to learn that it's not good to eat the worms, I'm yet to find out why.

Step 4.

Even after removing the worm, I still like to go ahead to remove the feases, this is optional but I just love my clam looking good and neat and free from feases.

Step 5.

After I was done removing all my clams from their shell, I washed it like 3x, until the water was clean.

Step 6.

I added my already washed clam into my pot, I added spices to season the meat, and then I kept it on fire. After some time, while the meat is boiling, I added my crayfish and more spices as the other wasn't enough, then I left it to cook well.

Step 7.

Not long later my Clam pepper soup was ready and I served it with my cool pure water, trust me when I say I enjoyed my meal😋. Would you love to join me?.

CONCLUSION.

Clam is a seafood, similar to oysters. It has its own nutritional value, can be used to cook soup, stew, rice or can even be fried and eaten like that. If you haven't eaten clams yet, I tell you, you are missed out. Hope you learnt something today, see you next time.
