Ingredients

Herb Oil
- 2 green onions, coarsely chopped
- 1/4 cup (10 g) fresh basil
- 2 tbsp fresh tarragon
- 1/2 cup (125 ml) canola oil
Clams
- 36 small hard-shell or soft-shell clams, scrubbed clean

Preparation

Herb Oil
- In a blender, purée the green onions, basil, tarragon and oil until smooth.
Palourdes
- In a large skillet over high heat, combine the clams and 2 tbsp (30 ml) of the herb oil. Keep the remaining herb oil for another use. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until the clams begin to open. Remove from the heat and stir until all the clams have opened. Discard any that remain closed. Let cool, then transfer to a bowl and refrigerate for 1 hour or until completely chilled.
- Drain the clams and arrange on a serving plate or serve as part of the Coast-to-Coast Canadian Seafood Platter.

Note from Ricardo

Cover the herb oil with plastic wrap directly on the surface and refrigerate for up to 2 days, or freeze.
