Instructions

  1. 1

    Step 1

    Rinse the clams in running water. Place in a pot, add water and 2 tablespoons of salt. Leave for 3–4 hours, changing the water several times to remove sand.

    Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a frying pan. Add 3–4 stems of parsley, a peeled garlic clove, prepared vongole, and 200 ml of white wine. Season with pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Step 2

    Cover with a lid and cook for 4–5 minutes until the shells open. Remove them with a slotted spoon, discarding any closed ones. Shell 2/3 of the mussels.

    Strain the liquid into a bowl. Add vegetable broth so that you have 1 liter of liquid.

    Step 3

    Peel and finely chop the onion. In a skillet, brown it for 2–3 minutes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of broth.

    Add peeled and diced potatoes. Pour in the prepared broth, cover with a lid and cook for 20 minutes after boiling.

    Salt and pepper to taste. Blend the soup with an immersion blender until smooth and uniform.

    Add the cleaned clams and 5 teaspoons of cream. Divide into bowls.

    Garnish with whole shells and finely chopped green onions. Sprinkle with smoked paprika and serve.
