Cooking tips

  • If you buy clams packed in bags with seawater, they’re already desalted and only need rinsing—no soaking required.
  • The 0.5 tablespoon of vinegar at the end isn’t for acidity—it removes fishy odors and enhances the savory depth of the dish.
  • Clams naturally contain salt, so there’s no need for extra seasoning—just 0.5 tablespoon of oyster sauce is enough for a rich, deep flavor.

Recommended for

  • People who enjoy a refreshing, slightly spicy clam broth with a glass of soju.
  • Beginners who find complex seafood recipes or hangover remedies too overwhelming.
