For steamed clams, lemongrass and ginger are needed to create a fragrant aroma and counteract the cool property of the clams. You can also prepare pineapples for a sweet and sour taste, which balances the strong flavor of sea clams. When eating, pair with dipping sauce and fragrant coriander for a sweet and delicious experience.
