☆ 1 bunch rape blossom
☆ 2 Japanese ginger (MIO-GA)
☆ 3 tbsp white sesame
☆ 3 tbsp sake

☆ 1 tsp salt

Direction:

1. Mix the ingredients for "A", set aside.

2. Wash the rice 30min prior to cooking, and drain on a sieve.

3. Soak the clam in salted water for about 30min to allow them to expel sand. Wash the clam well with scrub brush.

4. Put the 200cc water and sake in a pot, and bring to boil. Add the clam and simmer until shell have fully opened, remove the clam, and keep broth, set aside.
