Cooking tips for winter melon and clam soup to remove dampness in summerClams spit out sand, and the amount of performance should be larger, because the salt content of sea water is very high. If there is less salt, the clams will not open their mouths to spit out sand.
This soup does not need to be boiled with oil, it is boiled directly in plain water, and you can enjoy the deliciousness of the clams and the refreshingness of the winter melon.
Don't use too much salt because the clam soup itself is salty.
