Shijimi Clam Miso Soup
I saw directions for preparing the clams on a television program.
I always forget whether its shijimi clams or asari clams that have to be cooked from cold water so I uploaded this for my own reference.
Just make sure to get the clams to release the toxins and sand. Anything that was alive at some point has something to release.
If you'd like, I recommend using kombu as your dashi stock. Of course you can just use the dashi stock from the clams, but the collaboration of dashi stocks is delicious. Recipe by Tatakaukokkusan

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Even if the package says, "no need to de-sand the clams," they are still alive and there are toxins inside so let's get them out.
- 2
I used a shallow draining board. This way, when you clean them, any toxins and sand will sink to the bottom and it's easy to clean up afterwards. I used 1% salt water. (Not listed in ingredients)
- 3
Put the shijimi clams it. Cover with newspaper and let the shijimi rest for about 2 hours. If it's a warm day, it's better to put them in the fridge for this step.
- 4
In the meantime make the kombu dashi stock. Gently wipe the kombu with a tightly wrung out cloth and then put it in some water to soak.
- 5
After two hours... Look what came out! I'm glad I didn't eat all this...
- 6
Take out the piece of kombu and then add the shijimi clams into the water!
- 7
When you boil it, scum will rise, so skim it off.
- 8
Once you think the shijimi clams are starting to open, lower the heat to low and dissolve the miso. It's done!
- 9
Don't let it boil after adding the miso.

Miso Soup with Shijimi Clams (or Manila Clams ) Miso Soup with Shijimi Clams (or Manila Clams )
Clams produce a great broth with a lot of flavor.You should definitely add sake since it reduces any unpleasant odor while improving the flavor as a whole. Although I usually add dashi stock into my miso soup, I don't use it for this particular recipe since the clams give out plenty of nice flavor. Still, feel free to go ahead and add some dashi stock if you'd like. Recipe by Pukuttopukumaru -

I got tons of clam when I went clam-digging, and had them steamed in sake. Then I made miso soup with the leftovers, which turned out to be really tasty.Since then, I've been making manila clam miso soup this way.Use less miso than you regularly use to make miso soup. This particular miso soup will be tasty enough from the savory and rich flavor from the manila clams steamed in sake.Don't simmer too much after the clams open up (to keep them pump).I also make clear soup with manila clams steamed in sake. I highly recommend that, too. For 2 servings. Recipe by Isakochin. -
