Actually you can make a basic vinaigrette with 1 part vinegar to 3 to 4 parts oil, get the pot hot, add the clams to the dry pot then hit it with the vinaigrette and cover immediately. Once the clams open, you're done, hit this with lots of fresh herbs and serve with crusty French bread.
Of course you would want to add seasoning, shallots, and perhaps garlic to your vinaigrette, but really the sky is the limit to what you can do. How about garlic, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, roasted peppers, and shallots with plenty of chopped parsley and thyme? |
