Ingredients

  • 4 x Clams in shells
  • 1/4 c. Water

Directions

  1. Scrub and rinse clams, suitable for steaming (about 1 1/2" wide). in a 1 1/2 qt pan, bring water to a boil. Add in clams; cover and simmer till they open, about 5 min.
  2. Or possibly, to cook in a microwave oven, place clams in a microwave-safe 1 qt container. Cover with plastic wrap and cook at full power (100 percent), checking every 30 seconds, till clams open, 2-3 min total.
  3. Remove the clams as they open; continue cooking till all are open. (If a clam doesn't open, throw away it and cook another.) Use clams hot or possibly cold.
  4. Reserve 1/4 c. of the cooking liquid.
