Cooking tips
- To maintain the crisp texture of bean sprouts, they must be plunged into cold water immediately after cooking to stop the cooking process and prevent them from losing their freshness.
- Do not discard the small amount of broth released when steaming clams—use it directly in the salad. This natural clam essence delivers deep, savory flavor without any artificial seasonings.
Recommended for
- Those looking to move beyond ordinary bean sprout salads and add a chewy, luxurious seafood umami flavor.
- People who want to capture the deep, natural taste of fresh clam broth in a side dish without using artificial seasonings.
