I wanted to eat my favorite Spring cabbage and Manila clams.Since it's so easy to make, there are no special points. Recipe by -aoi-

Every year I get excited for spring, when I can make this clam and white wine dish.I made this because clams and cabbage are finally in season.If you cook the clams for too long, they will become tough.Since spring cabbage and sweet onions are tender, they'll cook very quickly.The amount of salt will vary depending on the brand of bacon, so season with salt and pepper at the end and adjust accordingly.

A long time ago, an izakaya (pub) that I used to go to had "clams steamed in sake" and "clams with butter" on the menu.Other than the natural salt and flavor from the clams, you don't need anything else.You can also make this with manila clams.But orient clams are larger and have better texture, so I usually buy them instead.

I got seasonal large-sized manila clams.The butter is optional. It is delicious either with or without it.If you are adding the butter, I think it is more flavorful to add it toward the end.The sake may catch on fire, when you shake the skillet, so be careful! Recipe by Yume.

Since the alcohol boils off, you could also serve this to children.The natural flavors of the ingredients come to life for a delicious dish.Turn the heat to high right away, cover with a lid, and steam. This will create very plump and delicious manila clams. Recipe by Arisu2000

Cooking in a microwave is easy. This is a simple recipe which I cook in spring when cabbage is in season. The highlight of this dish is the cabbage, but the broth tastes great too.Don't overcook the clams once they open up. You won't need additional seasoning as the clams and bacon gives a salty kick, but add salt if needed. Recipe by Suu

I always cooked sake-steamed manila clams. When my brother visited me, he told me that adding broccoli makes the dish more delicious, so I tried it. It was really tasty. My daughter and I almost finished it all!Please clean the manila clams completely!! Add 1 teaspoon of salt and enough water to cover the clams in a bowl, and leave in the fridge overnight. Wash them well, and you're ready to go. It's actually quite easy.You can also boil the broccoli instead of microwaving. Recipe by Yumi mama

This is my mother's recipe. We can dig clams nearby, so whenever we went clam digging when I was a child, I used to ask her to make these sake-steamed clams for us.Some clams are very salty, so taste before adding the soy sauce. It's best to de-sand the clams in a wide, shallow container so that the clams are in a single layer. If you don't have a container like that though, a bowl is fine. Recipe by Rikopin mama

Manila clams steamed in sake wasn't hearty enough, so I added broccoli and it turned out delicious because the broccoli absorbs the umami from the manila clams.Make sure not to heat up too much after the clams have opened up (because they will become hard). You can enjoy the soup in pasta. Recipe by berry+

If you leave out the time it takes to remove the salt from the clams, you can make a very easy, yet delicious meal.This also tastes great if you use manila clams instead of hamaguri clams, and enoki mushrooms instead of shimeji!But, if you place enoki mushrooms on the bottom of the container or dish, they'll become hard to pick up so I don't recommend using them. For 2 servings. Recipe by Rokkuru

I attempted making an easy sake steamed dish with bok choy and nori tsukudani that only needs one frying pan.The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the clams. After they open, only cook for 1 more minute. For 2 servings. Recipe by Yukirinrin

When I was steaming some steamed meat dumplings, the delicious smell from the cabbage and Chinese cabbage underneath the steaming basket was wafting out. Right away I decided to make something with lots of cabbage!10 minutes into the steaming, check to make sure the bottom isn't getting burned. Recipe by Iamitsuki
