Hehehe how good depends on the particular market. Mine is very good.

Not all like them! I'm not that fond of them either. I prefer steamed.
What I do is wash (scrub) then steam them open (ones that dont open are
tossed but I don't have that often as my market is a good one). Then, I add
them to dashi soup with miso, spinach and a little knob of ginger. Shell
and all, it looks rather pretty.
