 Directions

When renowned chef Pierre Franey visited Avery Island, he observed some
age-old local commercial enterprises ~ crawfish farming, oyster shucking
and boudin making ~ with great curiosity and enthusiasm. Here he brings his
incomparable touch to cherrystone clams, best enjoyed with a loaf of crusty
French bread and a carafe of wine. The southermers defer to the Yankees on
this one. ~
~ Preheat the broiler. Open the clams and arrange them
neatly on half shells on a baking sheet. In a small bowl, cream the butter
with the remaining ingredients. Spoon the mixture evenly over the clams.
Place them under the broiler for 1 minute. Serve immediately with French
bread.
