• Green onion, chopped 10 g · 3 kcal

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Clean the clams by soaking them in salted water for 30 minutes to an hour to remove sand. Drain and rinse thoroughly.
2. In a pot, bring the dashi stock to a gentle simmer. Add the cleaned clams to the simmering dashi and cook until they open, discarding any that do not open.
3. Remove the clams from the broth and set aside to prevent overcooking. Reduce the heat to low, ensuring the dashi is no longer boiling.
4. Ladle a small amount of warm dashi into a bowl with the miso paste and stir until the miso is fully dissolved. Gently stir the dissolved miso back into the pot with the dashi.
5. Return the cooked clams to the pot, briefly warming them through. Serve immediately, garnished with freshly chopped green onions.
