STEAMED CLAMS



Steamed Clams image

The recipe that follows is for a mess of clams, which on the eastern end of Long Island translates as a cool 100 littleneck hard-shell clams. You can certainly cook fewer of them, particularly if all you can find is the larger cherrystone clam, but a reasonable human can eat two dozen clams at a sitting, mopping up the broth with crusty bread. You can add herbs or other aromatics to the steaming liquid (thyme or garlic, say, or cilantro, parsley, tarragon). You can add chorizo or bacon. The point is just to create steam, and to allow the clams to open within it. Eat the clams with the liquid from the interior of their shells, and perhaps some melted butter. A fiery jalapeño brown butter is currently a favorite dip.

Time 10m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

100 littleneck clams
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/4 cup diced chorizo or bacon, optional
2 cups beer, approximately 1 can or bottle

Steps:

  • Carefully scrub the clams under cold running water to remove sand and grit, then set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a large pot set over medium heat, and when it foams, add the chorizo or bacon, and allow it to crisp, stirring occasionally, approximately 5 minutes.
  • Add the beer to the pot (use just 1 cup if cooking 50 or fewer clams), and allow to heat through, then carefully add the clams in layers. Cover the pot, and allow the clams to steam and open, approximately 10 to 12 minutes. Serve in the pot, or use tongs or a slotted spoon to remove clams to a platter, and serve alongside a bowl of the remaining clam broth and melted butter.

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 lb kielbasa (sliced)
3 cups potatoes (chopped)
1 medium onion (chopped)
2 celery ribs (chopped)
1 bay leaf
3 garlic cloves (finely minced)
5 -6 sprigs fresh thyme
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 tablespoon seafood seasoning (I use old bay)
2 ears corn on the cob (cut in thirds)
2 diced tomatoes (roasted on a pan until skins are black before chopping)
4 cups chicken stock
2 dozen littleneck clams

Steps:

  • Heat a large soup pot with extra-virgin olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the kielbasa and brown for 2 minutes; add the potatoes, onions, celery, bay, thyme, and pepper and let the veggies soften up 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Next add the garlic and the corn and stir to combine.
  • Add the tomatoes and stock to the pot. Cover and bring to a boil. Cook for 8 minutes.
  • Pat shrimp dry and toss with a rounded tablespoon of seafood seasoning. Add the shrimp and clams and replace the cover.
  • Cook until shrimp are pink and firm and the clams have opened up, 7 minutes. (During the cooking time I tend to leave the temperature on medium high so that the soup continues at a rapid boil.).

3 thyme sprigs
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup fino sherry
