THIS was incredible! We had a few friends over for a nice September evening last night. I had extra clams left over from a clam bake a couple of days ago, so these were already steamed. I threw them in the light balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing prior to heating up the sauce to give them even more flavor. I loved the spinach, the dry wine added just such a nice background taste that was delicate and molded perfectly with the sauce. Thank you so much Auntie Mags for a winner and an easy winner at that! Will make tons of times!Â

I have been cooking ever since I can remember. I'm always experimenting with new recipes and new ingredients. Life is too short to make the same thing twice!
I'm an author living in Ontario, Canada with my husband and two picky kids. We will be moving to Savannah, Georgia in the next year so I am honing my Southern cooking skills (although I may NEVER get my husband to like collard greens). I love all the great recipes and info on 'Zaar, and look forward to being more active here.
