  • 1 1/4 cups thinly sliced green onions
  • 1 large shallot, finely chopped
  • 1 1/4 cups chopped fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1 cup dry vermouth
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 1 cup vegetable stock
  • 12 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
  • 4 dozen littleneck clams, scrubbed
  • Salt and freshly ground cracked black pepper

Instructions

  1. Melt 4 tablespoons butter in large pot over medium heat. Add green onions and shallot and cook 3 minutes. Add 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro and next 6 ingredients. Increase heat to high; bring mixture to boil. Add clams and cover pot. Cook until clams open, shaking pot often, about 7 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer clams to 6 soup bowls (discard any clams that do not open). Boil remaining liquid over high heat until slightly thickened, about 1 minute.
