Instructions

  1. Clean the clams thoroughly and set aside. Heat a saucepan over medium heat and add the butter. Once the butter melts, add the clams to the pan and give them a few quick stirs. Then, add the water, sake, and mirin to the clams, and cover the pan with its lid.
  2. Turn the heat to high and bring the clams to a boil. Once all the clams have opened, add salt to taste. Dish the clams out into a bowl, garnish with chopped scallions, and serve immediately.
