This is fun to do on a picnic especially if you can dig the clams right there. Make the sauce at home and bring it along. You can put the sauce on them a few hours ahead of time if you are serving them at home and keep them in the fridge if you plan to serve them cold - I like them at room temperature

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Discard any clams that do not close when you give them a good rap (don't smash them) Scrub them twinkly clean.

  2. 2

    In a large pot (big enough to hold the clams in a single layer) bring 1 cup of salted water to a boil and drop in the clams, cover and steam for 6 minutes or until the clams open (if any clams do not open discard) Meanwhile whisk together the remaining ingredients.

  3. 3

    Remove clams and drain.

  4. 4

    Remove 1 part of the shell so the clams are sitting in a half shell, loosen the clam with a twist of a knife Pour a little of the sauce onto each clam.

  5. 5

    Serve hot or cold.
