Directions:

  1. Scrub all little neck clams in sink to remove any excess dirt or sand.
  2. I usually rub the shells gently together against each other, or use a vegetable scrub brush.

  5. The meat will cook finish cooking in the sauce.

  8. In the meantime, soak the saffron in the white wine.
  9. Wine will start to turn reddish orange.
  10. Add a little oil and the garlic to a frying pan, and cook until softened.
