We ended up eating the neck sashimi and the stomach in a hot-pot. It contains neck and stomach only, so all the good stuff and none of the hard work. They came in 1lbs vacuum sealed bags, each bag weights between 15.7 to 16.4 oz. The only thing that I need to order $150 or over to avoid shipping fee besides that, FedEx are right on the schedule that I requested. This is my second time ordered of 4lbs geo duck, they are well clean, fresh and really great for sashimi! My wife love it. Perfect for the amount of ceviche I wanted. Most of my guests had not tried geoduck but they devoured it, so fresh and clean. Ordered this for a ceviche I made and it was a huge hit. The quality of this frozen cleaned geoduck is same as live one. I'm excited that Taylor Shellfish farms can ship it to me. I used to drive to San Francisco to get live whole geoduck in Chinatown for years.

Geoduck is the world's largest burrowing clam and is prized at sushi bars because it pairs well with other flavors.Įverything perishable is shipped with plenty of frozen gel ice packs (dry ice for frozen oysters). The belly has a mild taste and is usually served pan fried, steamed or stewed. The siphon and belly meat are meticulously organized then vacuum sealed before being frozen.įrozen geoduck meat has the same flavor and qualities as a live whole geoduck, the neck or siphon has a deliciously sweet taste and the crisp texture of a cucumber is excellent served sashimi style. Fast fact: it’s illegal in Washington state to possess only the siphon of a geoduck.Try our new frozen geoduck meat and leave the cleaning to us! We clean approximately three geoducks to get one pound of meat. Pulling on the siphon will break it and kill the animal. If you’re lucky enough to see a geoduck siphon on a Puget Sound beach, touch it gently-if you can even do so fast enough before the geoduck retracts it. True to their name, geoducks are generally found buried two to three feet deep in mud, sand or gravel on Puget Sound beaches (by comparison, Manila clams are usually two to four inches underground).
WESTERN GEO DUCK FULL SIZE
Geoducks can live more than 150 years, and don’t reach their full size until they’re 15 years old.
The largest geoduck ever weighed and verified by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife was a whopping 8.16 pounds. Their shells are between six and eight inches long, and their siphons (the “necks” that protrude from their shells) can be over three feet long! When fully mature, Puget Sound geoducks weigh, on average, a bit over two pounds. Geoducks ( Panopea generosa) are native to the west coast of North America, and their name is derived from a phrase in the Nisqually language, gʷídəq, which means “dig deep.” Other names for this majestic mollusk: mud duck, king clam and (translated from Chinese) elephant-trunk clam.
