spiral shells

For this one, I prefer to make it with boiling. Put some ginger slices into the boiling water with some salt and Chinese wine. Then boil it until you see some bubbles coming out from the water. Normally it takes around 2-3 minutes. It depends on how big the shells are. Then eat it with soy sauce with some chopped chili, or with some seafood sauce.

Is this the "Tin Law"(Cantonese dish) or "Sea Hum"(Shanghai dish)?

I guess it should be called "east wind shell". Tin Law is a bit dark on the shell. "Sea Hum" is a clam specie. "Sea Hum" should be "cloark...(not sure the exact spelling".
