It brought back fond memories of collecting Pipis as a child, venturing into the surf at low tide, and wiggling our feet and toes (a bit like doing the twist) to collect a family feed of shellfish. Pipis are the unsung heroes of kai moana (seafood). They have a delightful, subtle texture and flavour, which lends itself to plenty of options for cooking. We created a range of dishes, which are shown here. To begin with is the Kiwi Pipi Classic: Freshly steamed Pipis served with Bread and Butter. (preferably, a slice or two of Molenberg Bread, which is another Kiwi staple).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wholefoodkitchen.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_0525.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4739\" title=\"IMG_0525\" src=\"http:\/\/www.wholefoodkitchen.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_0525.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"580\" height=\"435\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.wholefoodkitchen.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_0525.jpg 580w, http:\/\/www.wholefoodkitchen.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_0525-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Next up, we tried a batch of Pipis straight on the BBQ, or &#8216;barbie&#8217; for our Australian cousins.
