Preparation

1. Sauté the garlic and parsley in the butter until lightly browned. Season with black pepper, add water and clams. Cover and cook 5 minutes over high heat. Transfer the clams that have opened to a serving bowl. Continue cooking any clams that haven’t opened for another 2-3 minutes. Discard any clams that haven’t opened.
2. When you pour the broth over the clams, do so slowly so any sediment is left behind to be discarded. Serve with fresh bread.
