The ″Lake Shinji Shijimi Clam Large Grain″ is a selection of large grain shijimi clams offered by HIRANO KANZUME CORPORATION. These clams from Lake Shinji are created to dispel any misconceptions about their size and taste, aiming to provide delicious, large clams. Founded in the early Meiji period as a fish wholesaler processing the abundant marine products of Lake Shinji and the Sea of Japan, our company has been dedicated to creating products using ingredients from Shimane Prefecture. In particular, we have a reputation for creating products that make the most of the raw materials, such as winning a national commendation in 1929 for our canned boiled whitefish from Lake Shinji. While dried shijimi and shijimi extract are popular, we propose enjoying our large, shell-on shijimi clams directly in delicious miso soup or clear broth. These large clams (L size, shell height 14-16mm) represent about 10% of the catch from Lake Shinji, offering a rare opportunity to fully appreciate the flavor of the shijimi meat. We recommend enjoying not just the broth but the meat itself. Boil about 500g of water in a pot, add the shijimi, bring to a boil, then season with an appropriate amount of miso or dashi soy sauce. The clams can also be used in various dishes, such as shijimi pasta or shijimi steamed in sake. Lake Shinji’s Yamato shijimi clams are a special natural product, and their packaging is labeled ″Produced in Lake Shinji.″ Please enjoy the 100% Lake Shinji flavor.
