A few words about this item from chef José Andrés:
A hidden treasure of Spanish gastronomy, and one of my favorite tapas: these small saltwater cockles are harvested in the sandy estuaries along the coast of Galicia where the cool waters make for perfect seafood. Naturally prepared in saltwater and simply steamed, these tender cockles are the ultimate flavor of the sea. And they couldn't be easier to serve and share, straight from the can with a squeeze of lemon and a glass of your favorite white wine. Perfect!
