This delicious snack/appetiser is inspired in the original dish made with clams. Why the funky name? Nothing too hilarious, just the person who invented it was a poet called Raimundo António de Bulhão Pato. All the flavours but none of the boiling little clams non-sense, and we can all live ‘happy as a clam in high water’ (pun intended)!
