Plump, tender and beautifully clean, these vongole have a delicate sweetness and a fresh, oceanic salinity. The brine preserves their natural flavour and soft texture, making them refined rather than fishy, with a gentle savoury depth that lingers.
Serving suggestions
A natural choice for pasta vongole: warm gently with olive oil, garlic and chilli, then finish with parsley and a splash of the brine. They’re also excellent spooned over toasted sourdough, added to seafood risotto, or used to enrich brothy soups and stews. Keep it simple — they reward restraint.
