Season 2014
Episode 24
We included some traditional clambake ingredients, as well as some Pacific Northwest favorites (like Dungeness crab instead of lobster), but you can use any ingredients that will fit inside a Dutch oven. Mimic the smoky beach fire with toasted wood chips, and use rehydrated kombu for a dose of brine. Pile rocks in the center to store heat in the middle of the pot so the food will cook evenly.
