Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Clams

    Rinse the fresh clams under cold running water to remove any sand or grit. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, chopped onion, celery, and carrot. Sauté until the vegetables are soft, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the Clams and Liquids

    Pour in the white wine and fish stock (or vegetable broth). Bring to a simmer. Add the cleaned clams to the pot.

  4. 4

    Cook the Clams

    Cover the pot and cook for about 5-10 minutes, or until the clams have opened. Discard any clams that do not open.

  5. 5

    Season and Serve

    Stir in the chopped parsley, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve hot.
