Shellfish or shellfish is an outdated term for shellfish , a sub-tribe of mollusks . They have been a food item since the Paleolithic Age . Their bowls are found in so-called Køkkenmøddingern .

In the kitchen language , however, the term has survived. There are mainly edible mussels and water-living snails meant by occasionally to the echinoderms counting urchins and crustaceans such as lobsters or crabs . Cephalopods such as cuttlefish and squid are not counted among the shellfish in the kitchen language , although biologically they belong to the tribe of the shellfish.

There are a number of very traditional ways to cook shellfish. So are the New England Clam Bake for example, lobster , mussels , Sandklaff- and clams and crabs in a ground oven cooked directly on the beach.
