Cooking Cornish Cockles
I thought I would forage some Cockles from my local estuary to take home, cook and try for the first time. Im not keen on sea-food but I believe you have to try things and you cant say ‘I don’t like that’ if you’ve never tried it! After I got these home I left them for 24hrs in a bowl of salty water, I also put some oats in, the idea is that the Cockles clean their systems in the clean water and oats. My Cockles still had sand inside them so I would recommend leaving them for 48hrs+
