Vongole (Small Clams)

Vongole (Small Clams)s are small edible clams often used in Mediterranean and Italian cooking (think spaghetti alle vongole) and prized for their sweet, briny flavour and firm texture. They are a lean seafood that provides 14.7g of protein per 100 g, making them a good choice when you want a low-fat, high-protein ingredient. Nutritionally, vongole are especially notable as an excellent source of key minerals and B vitamins — they supply substantial amounts of vitamin B12, iron and iodine, nutrients often sought from seafood and shellfish. They are low in fat and carbohydrates, so they fit well into low-carb or calorie-conscious meals. From a health perspective, small clams deliver high-quality protein and a favorable fat profile while supplying important micronutrients that support blood and thyroid health. Because they are a nutrient-dense shellfish, they’re a nutritious addition to soups, pasta, stews or simple preparations with garlic, lemon and herbs.Read more
