Hello everyone, welcome back to LibiTV
Today, I bought some Desara clams to make onion oil grilled Desara clams
Comparing to other types of clams, these ones are gigantic
But comparing to this type only, these ones about 1kg are still small ones
These clams are alive so when I touch the flesh, it gradually closes its shells
I bought 3, they weigh 4kg, the price was 280000VND per kilo
I got them at "Oc dem", 72 Duong Ba Trac, Phuong 2 Quan 8 HCM city
To start preparing the clams, I clean and wash the shells
After that, I use a knife to cut the flesh in between the shells to split it
Eventhough it looks and weigh heavy, the weight is mainly in the shells, the flesh isn't so much
I'll use the knife to cut out the flesh and the guts
The flesh is pretty big and dense
The first one looks bigger but not as fat as this one
After cutting out the flesh, I'll remove to black part sticking to the flesh and wash it with water again
I found a tiny dotted shrimp inside the shell, so cute
I think this is the shrimp that the clam caught but hasn't digested yet
And this shrimp is till alive
Okay stop joking, I'll cut the clam into bite-size pieces
After cutting, I think that the flesh is quite a lot
I'll put the flesh into 4 shells
About the onion oil sauce, you just need to season the onion with sugar, fish sauce, half a teason for each, and then pour the hot oil into it
Put the sauce onto the clam, I'll bake them at 200oC in about 20 mins
Lastly, I put the roasted peanuts and fried onions on top, and our dish is done
L: Hey guys, I've just done making the onion oil grilled clams
B: Please enjoy them with us, guys
L: Here it is, guys, I put some Lisianthus on for decoration
L: Isn't it pretty?
L: To eat with the clams, I prepared 2 bowls of fish sauce and sea grapes
L: And what's that dear? Oh, the drink
B: Aloe vera. Today we drink Korean aloe vera juice
B: It doesn't have any spikes in it
L: Quit it
L: Today I'm too lazy to do my hair, so I put it aside like this
L: Because we're gonna sleep after eating this, so I'm lazy
L: Enjoy it with us
L: Let's eat these delicious clams
L: I'll pour the fish sauce on top
L: I'll put it on
B: The two bowls are diffent or the same?
L: The same
B: You should've just put it in one bowl
L: Earlier I thought we'd sit apart from each other so I made 2 bowls
L: I'mma mix it
L: I'm craving so hard now
L: Mix it so that it's all well seasoned. I'll try this bite
L: Enjoy
B: I'll eat the bigger bite
L: It's so crunchy
B: I can taste the onion clearly
B: And the peanuts, fried garlic, chillies
B: And the fish sauce as well as the crunchiness of the clams
L: So good
L: These Desara clams are good eaten raw, too
L: But these days, my body isn't so healthy
L: So I don't dare eating it raw
B: Linh has filmed an ASMR video, the clam was huge
B: Is this a rare species?
L: When you told me that this is a rare species, I looked it up
L: A document said that the Desara clams have 2 kinds
L: One kind is the one for decoration, which weight more than 10 or 20 kg
L: They make the atmosphere in the house better or something, so the Chinese seek for it a lot
L: And Vietnamese people catch them to export to China
L: So the big Desara clams are rare
L: But the small ones, I see the restaurants selling them normally
L: When I come to the islands, I see a lot of these
L: If this were rare and forbidden to sell, the police would tell the restaurants for fine them
L: But I see they're selling these without any trouble
L: In HCM City, there're some restarants occasionally sell these
L: So there're sellers, there're buyers
L: Mmm, so good
B: It's so good, and crunchy
B: Whether it's good or not depends on the fish sauce, too
L: I got a sister make the sauce for me, because I was busy, so I didn't have time to do it.
L: I'll dip the sea grapes into the leftover sauce in the shell
B: After filming the last video, Linh said that the light wasn't good
B: She came to my house, keep complaining about it the whole day
B: I couldn't stand it so I bought some lights to put all around the area
B: So that she can be satisfied
L: He's lazy, guys. He can do many things but he's lazy
L: He's always fighting with me, guys
B: My ex wife
B: Talking about this makes me wanna laugh
L: Why so?
B: Ther're no ther couples so ridiculous like us
B: Our relationship is so bizzare
L: I'll move on to the second one
B: As you can see earlier, I eat the whole clam in one bite
L: I bought 3, about 4kg, the price in total is about 1200000VND
L: 280000VND a kilo
L: But not much flesh, shells are so heavy
B: 3 ones for 1200000VND, 4 kilo
L: Yeah, the shells are heavy.
B: So one kilo has to be 300000VND, right?
L: Shipping fee too.
L: Mmm, so good
B: The sea grapres today aren't so big, guys
B: Linh bought the small type today
L: It depends on the seller, some days it's big, some days it's small
B: You should soak it in ice water so that it's fresh and crunchier
L: But the ice makes them shrink
B: Put it in a bowl of ice water
B: I think it'll plump up?
L: No, it shrinks
L: With the dried one that's vacuumed, you can do that, but the fresh ones can shrink even when you put it in the fridge
L: And when you put it in the ice water
B: When we eat, soak it a little bit
B: Soaking for too long makes it shrink
L: This one can't plump any bigger than this
L: This is the fresh one, they're like this originally
L: If you buy the ones when they've been dried, you put them in water and the puff up
L: It was so hard to exploit fresh sea grapes
L: But now, people grow it in farms so we can buy fresh sea grapes easily
L: I bout half a kilo for just 45000VND, so cheap
B: I'm so hungry today but Linh made such a small dish
B: I'm not full
L: But there're not much meat
L: Shells are so much
L: Your stomach isn't good today, eat less
L: But it's so good.
L: Really crunchy
B: I thought we put the silver play button here?
B: Ah no, the gold play button
L: Who puts it under the table
B: See? It looks so cute, looks like hiding.
B: My children gave their mother a whole bunch of their stuffed toys, guys
B: But then when we shoot, they wanted them back because they just wanted to lend us, not give us
B: They're gonna play with the toys then
B: But earlier Linh told them to bring them back home
B: Giving them to me only makes them come to his home to take back
B: But they insist: No, I give them to you
B: I won't take back, I have a video evidence
L: They can't deny
L: I only take one or two, giving me all and then some days later you'll come to take back, I'm sure
Daughter: No, I give it to you, I insist
L: What're you trying to do?
Daughter: I'll put them all up here for you
L: Leave them at home to play, leave them all here doesn't look so good either
L: Where're the big ones
Daughter: but the big ones are too big
L: Just bring it here
Daughter: Okay, I'll take it
Oh it's the purple pony
Daughter: a little pig
Daughter: Does this look pretty?
L: Where're the chickens and the bears?
L: Bring them all here, I'll choose
B: I earlier told them I had a video that they said they gave you but they took back
B: But they denied: No I didn't say that
B: I only lent you
B: I told them I had a clip to show them but they refused to watch it
L: Today I planned to film it with them, guys
L: because I bought grape and mango jellies in the fridge for them to eat while shooting
L: They were so excited to film but the seafood restaurant called me suddenly to inform that they have this clam, so I bought them to film first
These one are occasionally available, not so often
L: They're sesonal seafood
B: The little pieces you haven't cut out from the shells taste so good
B: They're so chewy and crunchy
L: Are they?
B: It's easier to peel those off when cooked
L: They're perfectly cooked
L: OMG so good, I want to eat more
B: I thought your stomach isn't feeling so well?
L: But they're so good
B: This video is quite short
L: Yeah it is
B: We don't talk about other things
L: Because we're so hungry, we can't talk
L: We've finshed eating, so quick
L: There isn't much flesh to eat
BL: There is soooooooo little meat
L: The shell is big but the flesh isn't much
L: But the meat is especially delicious
L: Really good, so if you have a chance, please try it
L: I think we can eat these clams which are under 10kg
L: If it weren't okay, police would shut down the restaurants selling these in HCM city
L: Those restaurants are popular, it they work illegally, they'll be arrested
L: Thank you so much for watching our video
L: What ya doing?
B: I'm tryna move my neck and head
L: Don't be crazy
