About the dish

Sopa de lingueirão is a traditional soup made with razor clams (lingueirão). It features a flavorful broth typically prepared with ingredients like onions, garlic, tomatoes, and olive oil. The razor clams are added to the broth along with pasta (potatoes or rice are also used), and the soup is often garnished with fresh herbs like coriander or parsley and seasoned with pepper and salt. This dish is served with toasted bread and is popular in coastal regions of Portugal, particularly in the Algarve, and is appreciated for its fresh, briny flavors.
