Cooking tips
- Do not overcook the clams, as they become tough and shrink in size. The key is to keep cooking time under 2 minutes after covering the pan.
- Sautéing cherry tomatoes with the other ingredients helps balance the richness of butter and draws out natural umami into the broth, resulting in a much more refined flavor.
- You can substitute soju with white wine or soju-like rice wine for equally excellent results.
Recommended for
- Those looking for a light, flavorful soup side dish to pair with beer, wine, or soju.
- People who want a fresh clam dish without fishy odor, featuring the smooth, buttery richness of butter.
- Anyone wanting to create a sophisticated, upscale izakaya-style appetizer in just 10 minutes.
