MISO SOUP WITH CLAMS

Best MISO SOUP WITH CLAMS recipe in 2021!

Adding sake brings this dish to a new level.

Instead of using dashi, the soup gets its flavor from the natural brininess of the clams and their juices, which, combined with sake, form the base.

Miso Soup with Clams

The Miso Soup with Clams requires few ingredients, just miso paste, clams, sake, and mitsuba, or Japanese wild parsley, as a garnish. You can find mitsuba in Japanese grocery stores, but you can also substitute with scallions.

The Miso Soup with Clams takes only 10 minutes or so to make. It’s great an accompaniment to sushi, noodles, or a precursor to meaty dishes like Japanese beef and rice, teriyaki chicken, or braised pork belly.

Ingredients

  • Makes 2 large bowls or 4 to 6 small bowls

  • 1 pound Manila or small Littleneck clams

  • 1/2 cup sake

  • 4 cups water

  • 3 tablespoons red miso paste

  • 1 small bunch mitsuba, leaves removed, or substitute 1 scallion, thinly sliced

Directions

  • Scrub the clams in several changes of cold water to remove any excess sand.
  • In a medium pot, combine the clams with the sake. Cover and bring to boil over high heat. Once the clams start to open (about 1 to 2 minutes), add the water, cover, and bring to boil again. Cook for another 3 to 4 minutes. Uncover and discard any clams that are not open. Carefully stir in the miso paste and continue stirring until the paste is fully dissolved.
  • Ladle the soup and clams into individual bowls. Garnish with a few mitsuba leaves or sliced scallions and serve.
