INSTRUCTIONS
Note: See the "Bayou Blast - {Emeril's Creole Seasoning}" recipe which
is included in this collection. Preheat the fryer. Preheat the grill.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk the mayonnaise with the shallots,
garlic, red onion, egg whites, cornichons, capers, parsley and
tarragon. Season the tartar sauce with juice of one lemon, salt and
white pepper. Refrigerate the mayonnaise for 1 hour for the flavors to
marry. In a mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, masa and Bayou Blast
together. Dredge the clams in the cornmeal mixture. Sift the clams, to
remove any excess cornmeal. Using a fryer, fry the clams for 2 to 3
minutes or until the clams are slightly golden and crispy. Remove the
clams from the fryer and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season the
clams with Creole Seasoning. Brush each side of the hot dog bun with
the melted butter. Grill the buns for about 1 minute on each side.
Remove the buns from the grill. Spread about a tablespoon of the
tartar sauce on each side of the bun. Layer the fried clams on one
half of the bun. In a small bowl, lightly toss the greens with olive
oil. Season the greens with salt and pepper. Mound the greens on top
of the clams. Place the rolls on a platter and serve with potato salad
and Zaps. This recipe yields 4 servings. Recipe Source: ESSENCE OF
