Directions:
- Clean the cockle shells very well under cold running water, discarding any that are already open. Place the cockles in a large saucepan and cover with cold, well-salted water. Bring slowly to the boil, shaking the saucepan from time to time. As soon as the cockles are open, they are ready Do not over-cook, as this will toughen them.
- Allow the cockles to cool in the stock, then strain, keep back the stock, and remove the cockles from their shells using a sharp knife, strain the cooled stock again and make up to 1 1/2 pints with water if necessary.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan, stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute, gradually add the cockle stock, stirring to prevent lumps forming, bring to the boil then stir in the milk. Add the onion and celery and cook, stirring, for 5-10 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft. Add the parsley and pepper, and then stir in the cockles.
- Heat through thoroughly and pour into 4-6 soup bowls. Swirl a tablespoon, of cream into each bowl and garnish with a little parsley.
- Serve with crusty bread.
