Steamers - The True Meaning of Summer


For me nothing signals that the summer has arrived more than eating a bucket of steamer clams. Steamers are clams that are steamed in a pot, with a tail hanging off then end of the pot and served with hot water (to dip and clean) and a cup of melted butter for dipping. Steamer with a ear of corn, and boiled exemplifies a hot summer day. Dayboat Cafe in Irvington New York which is a wonderful seafood restaurant has steamers now on special, they also have outdoor dining. I ordered the steamers with a bottle of Rodney Strong Chardonnay and it just put me in the mode for summer! So exciting my favorite season of all is finally here!!!
