1
Prepare the Clams
Rinse the fresh clams under cold water to remove any sand or debris. Place them in a pot with water and bring to a boil. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the clams open up. Discard any that do not open.
2
Prepare Cocktail Sauce
In a bowl, mix together the cocktail sauce, lemon juice, horseradish, and Tabasco sauce to create a zesty dipping sauce. Adjust seasoning to taste.
3
Serve
Arrange the cooked clams on a platter. Drizzle with additional lemon juice and sprinkle with salt and chopped parsley. Serve with the cocktail sauce on the side for dipping.
