Cooking Instructions
- 1
Put the clams in water with the same amount of salt as sea water (1 cup [200 ml] water to 1 teaspoon salt), and place in a dark place for 2 to 3 hours to remove any sand.
- 2
Once the sand has been released, rinse under running water while rubbing the shells together.
- 3
Blanch the mitsuba, fold the stalk in half, then tie a knot. Soak the temari-bu to reconstitute.
- 4
Wipe the both sides of the kombu with a damp cloth to clean. Soak the kombu in water for 30 minutes.
- 5
Add the clams, then heat on low, and remove the kombu right before it comes to a boil.
- 6
Simmer, skimming off any scum that rises to the top, then remove the clams as they open. Transfer clams to individual serving bowls.
- 7
Season the broth with sake and salt, and pour over the clams. Lightly squeeze the excess water from the temari-bu, and add them to the soup with a sprig of mitsuba.

Shijimi Clam Miso Soup 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 cookpad.japan -
Manila Clam Milk Soup Manila Clam Milk Soup
I received a lot of Manila clams as a gift. They're delicious steamed in sake or in pasta, but I was wondering if I could cook them in another way.Use clams that have been de-sanded and de-salted. Be sure not to let the garlic burn! Once the milk is added, don't let it boil! You can try making this with soy milk. Try adding vegetables and so on to come up with your own variations, as other COOKPAD users have. Recipe by bobitin cookpad.japan -
