Ayuh, lobster feasts Down-East always start with " steama
clams" . Yours should, too. Finestkind is "some pleased"
to be able to bring you MAINE "IPSWICH"
STEAMER CLAMS, wearing little black "wedding bands"
around their extruding necks. If you're a transplanted New
Englander ( as are two-thirds of our longtime customers),
you're familiar with these sweet clams and you know that you
can't get these down here under any circumstances. Now, thanks
to Finestkind you can.
Steamer Clams are about an inch to an inch and a half in
diameter. Pre-washed and pre-packed in net bags, these tender
morsels number about 60-75
per bag- good for three to four clam lovers with moderate
appetites.
Two bags ought to provide enough leftovers for a fantastic
clam chowder. Our free chowder recipe that you'll get on Lobster
Day may knock your socks off ( a hint, buy some very dry vermouth)
The cost: $27 per bag of clams.

FRESH HEADLESS GULF SHRIMP.
26-30 to the pound - Can you even think of getting
through the World Series marathon without
a mound of these beauties. These are simply outstanding.
Call around to local markets and you'll discover ( if
you're persistent enough) that most markets sell " flash
frozen" shrimp that's been dipped in chemical preservatives
when caught on board commercial boats that fish for
a week - then their shrimp is shipped north, "thawed
for your convenience", and too frequently sold as "fresh"
- it's not!
Finestkind's
shrimp has been caught in the Gulf of Mexico by local
shrimpers, buried in ice and flown to us directly on
Lobster Day. No flash freezing, No chemical preservatives.
You'll be amazed at their appearance and taste.

A word of advice: order more than you think you'll
need, as there probably won't be much "extra", if any,
available on Lobster Day. Many people order 10-15
lbs.; they tell us that even after freezing Finestkind's
shrimp for a couple of months, they're tenderer and
fresher tasting than any shrimp they can buy in the
store. The cost: $14.50 per pound (whole pounds only).
