Toheroas are considered New Zealand's greatest delicacy. Their flavor is quite unique. This shellfish is like a very large cockle. It burrows into the sand and is only to be found on certain beaches and the season in which it can be gathered is strictly limited as is the catch which can be taken on any one day. When the toheroa gathering season is on, New Zealanders in their thousands flock to these beaches to dig by hand or wooden implement (metal ones are not permitted) for these succulent molluscs. Since a visit to New Zealand is necessary adjunct to getting fresh toheroas here is a recipe which uses the tinned variety for those who cannot visit "the land of the long white cloud". 4 servings
