Answers:
Coming from maine, I know my fish!. Seafood has a very short shelf life!. Canned may last longer since usually they are packaged with preservatives, but I wouldn't let it sit more than 1 extra day!. After that the fish smell is overhwelming and the flavor will have a mushy feel (if your recipe is a wet one) or overly dry (if they are battered)!. To make the best impression, make them tomorrow morning!. And make sure if you refrigerate leftovers immediately!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yeah, they'll be just fine!. There is a slight acidity to the dressing, which will help keep any stray bacteria at bay!.
And even without the dressing, you'd be a-okay!. Clams go south pretty quick, but not 1 day quick!.

Hope they turn out good!Www@FoodAQ@Com

if you just opened them, at least 2 days!. dont let it stay opened!. ocver it in plastic wrap!.

you should use them the day you open them!. if there is vinegar in the dressing or lemon juice you could wait a day!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

canned food doesn't go bad for a while and depending on how long you had them i'm guessing a year is when they start to go bad b/c they clams!. hope i helpedWww@FoodAQ@Com

One night wont hurt them!. I wouldn't use them past 3 days though!. Unless they are cooked!. If they were cooked, you are good to go for a week!
