  • About

In Japan, this simple, fast dish is made with shimeji mushrooms, little white-stemmed, brown-capped mushrooms that grow in clusters. Most Japanese markets carry these fresh, but if you can’t find them, use enoki mushrooms or sliced cremini.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • pounds (680 g) Manila clams,

Method

In a large, deep saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the clams, water, mushrooms, sake, and mirin. Cover, turn the heat to high, and cook until the clams open, about 5 minutes.

Look through and discard any unopened or cracked clams. Divide the clams between two bowls. Garnish with the green onion, lemon zest, and a few drops of sesame oil.
