Steamed cockles, or natural cockles, open to steam, are not made with wine, or with oil, or garlic, etc. We just need a hot pot or pan and the cockles.
The most natural cockles I took in my life were the ones I took on the beach when I was little. When we bathed we dug a little in the sand with our feet and cockles came out handfuls. Well, the fact is that we opened them against each other and ate them right there, at sea.
Of course that was before, now there are the closed seasons, and the shellfish catchers that have to make a living. That is why we cannot play with the resources of others, that everyone has the right to earn their bread honestly.
To open them at home and cook them a little, there are those who do not like raw, we have to wash them to release the sands. We put them under running water and then leave them in salt water for several hours to drink and release the sands. If necessary, we change the water as many times as it takes until it comes out clean.
Finally, cockles are placed directly in a fairly hot pan and, with the liquid they release themselves, it is enough for them to open.
They are exquisite !!
