The subtle sweetness and complex depth of this rice wine make it a versatile ingredient in various culinary applications, especially with seafood like clams.

 

Ingredients You’ll Need

 - 1kg of fresh clams

- 1 cup of Ye Traditions Red Rice Wine or Hakka Rice Wine

- 2 tablespoons of olive oil

- 4 cloves of garlic, finely chopped

- 1 small onion, finely chopped

- 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes (optional, for a spicy kick)

- 1 cup of chicken broth (or water)

- Fresh herbs such as parsley or cilantro for garnish

- Salt and pepper to taste

 

Step-by-Step Preparation Recipe

 1. Cleaning the Clams

Start by thoroughly cleaning the clams. Place them in a large bowl of cold salted water and let them sit for at least 30 minutes. This process helps to purge any sand or grit trapped inside. Rinse the clams under cold running water before cooking.

 

2. Preparing the Aromatics

In a large sauté pan or pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped garlic and onions and sauté until they become fragrant and translucent. If you like a bit of heat, this is the time to add the red pepper flakes.

 

3. Adding Ye Traditions Red Rice Wine

Pour in 1 cup of Ye Traditions Red Rice Wine into the pan. Allow the wine to simmer for a few minutes, reducing slightly and letting the alcohol evaporate. The aromatic depth of the red rice wine will infuse into the garlic and onions, creating a delicious base for the clams.

 

4. Incorporating the Clams

 Add the cleaned clams to the pan, followed by the chicken broth or water. Cover the pan with a lid and increase the heat to medium-high. Steam the clams for about 5-7 minutes, or until they open. Discard any clams that remain closed after cooking.

 

5. Finishing Touches

Season the dish with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley or cilantro to add a fresh burst of flavor and a pop of color. For a more rustic presentation, serve the clams directly from the pan, accompanied by some crusty bread to soak up the delicious red rice wine broth.

  

Enjoy the delightful combination of clams and the rich, aromatic essence of Ye Traditions Red Rice Wine. Bon appétit!
