@Hooroo do you not have wet fish shops that would prepare crab and lobster?

We do have those but I have only ever seen whole crab or Crayfish/lobster.

@canefan A type of clam? That could work. Sort of like spaghetti vongole? If so I’ve tried cooking that many times with varying success. None of it anywhere near as good as in a back street restaurant in Venice. Incredibly cheap too.

Population and demand. Wet fish shops have gone the way of local butchers.
When our seafood commands high prices overseas the local market is also priced way above what people are willing to pay regularly, especially when fishing as a recreation is so big and you can just catch it yourself. -

Great pasta crab dish tonight. Sweat some shallots, garlic and chilli (not too hot, need to taste the crab). Season add white wine and reduce. Prepare the spaghetti. Add lime juice and white crab meat to the mix and then combine with the pasta. Finish with more lime juice and chopped parsley. Easy, quick and really good.
I know that brown crab meat has more flavour but it just does not work in this dish. I don’t normally add Parmesan to seafood pasta but this is an exception.
No pictures as I ate it too quickly. But it does look good too.
Did you crack all the meat yourself or can you buy it ready to go over your way? Sounds super even if labour intensive.
I make a similar dish with tuatuas here. Don't use white wine though, rocking it old school Italian.
I read this as using "Tuataras" which seemed an odd thing to admit to on the internet...

Yes, tua tuas are like a large pipi.
This is the method I have based mine on, the method starts at 15 minutes in but it is a great show anyway, food porn par excellence

@Hooroo $29kg here https://www.takitimuseafoods.co.nz/category/113397
I buy from them all the time. The fish is fresh and well priced. The tua tuas are amazing, biggest I've ever seen

Had a big pick of the plants this morning. Habaneros, Rocotos, Jalapeños, long reds and one I have no idea of.
On to smoke and dry out all day.
Finished product. Smells divine.

Prawn, chives, garlic, ginger, with some veggie ones subbing the prawn for mushroom. Mixed the prawns with soy, oyster sauce and sesame sauce inside, then dunked in soy and chilli oil afterwards
Mmmmmmm
