Steps

1

Purge the shijimi clams well to remove any sand.
2

Add water and sake to a pot, then add the clams. Bring to a boil.
3

As soon as it boils, it will foam up quickly and may overflow, so watch carefully.
4

Skim off the foam (scum) as it forms. Once all the clams have opened, turn off the heat.
5

When the clams have opened, dissolve the miso into the soup and it's ready to serve.
6

You can make miso soup with clams the same way!
