Preparation

Step 1

Scrub clams under cold water; drain.

In large pot combine wine, onion, parsley, butter, thyme, bay leaf and pepper. Add clams and bring to a boil; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 10 to 15 minutes or until clams open. Simmer 3 minutes more, discarding any clams that do not open.

Divide clams among 6 shallow bowls; keep warm. Strain hot liquid through cheesecloth and ladle over clams.

Serve with French bread.
