I have frozen raw clams. How long do I steam them for, and how do I prepare them after they are steamed?
Defrost clams, then steam until shell opens. Bon appetite

I worked at a pizzaria and it was my job once a week to take a case of frozen mussels and portion them into tins for service wheather eat in or take out. They were stacked and put in the walk in, when needed sauce was added and heated in the pizza oven for service as a side or over pasta. They have been steamed and shells are just "popped" open hinge still intact and quick frozen. But in transit they sometimes come out of the shell. I had to be sure there was a mussel in each shell. Unopened shells were tossed. Some people got lucky because when I got to the bottom of the case there was always mussels missing shells so some tins got extra stray mussels. LOLThe frozen mussels I've seen all come in their shells. Which has me wondering how or why they opened.
You can't eat dead clams they can kill you. If you freeze the clam to death it's still dead?Are those clams pre cooked then frozen?
