Cockles In White Wine
A Simple but Very Tasty Starter, you can of course use clams. I have no idea where this recipe came from but I have been using it since about 1978. I do have a vague recollection of having something similar at Alfredo?s Restaurant; in Morecambe so I think the kudos should go to them
