Properly cooking a geoduck typically takes about 30 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on the method.

Estimated Duration: 2 minutes

Geoduck, a large clam with a sweet and briny flavor, requires minimal cooking to preserve its tender texture. For sashimi, it's sliced raw. For quick cooking, blanch sliced geoduck in boiling water for 30 seconds or sauté for 1-2 minutes. Overcooking makes it rubbery. Always clean and prepare it properly by removing the siphon and viscera before cooking. Pair with light sauces or citrus to enhance its natural taste. Proper preparation ensures a delicate, seafood-rich dish.
