RAZOR CLAMS WITH KIELBASA



Razor Clams with Kielbasa image

It's not that David Chang, the chef and owner of the Momofuku Noodle Bar in the East Village, doesn't like vegetables. In fact he loves them. He just thinks a little meat makes them better. Even his fish gets the meat treatment. When you look at Mr. Chang's razor clams with kielbasa, you see a dish that, with a couple of exceptions, like the addition of soy and ginger, could have originated in Portugal. Of course that country's cuisine has as much respect for the tradition of including meat in nearly everything as Mr. Chang's own.

RAZOR CLAM IN SHA CHA SAUCE



Razor Clam in Sha Cha Sauce image

Razor Clam in Sha Cha Sauce is one of my favorite dishes. Sha Cha is a type of sauce which is actually from my hometown. I was so glad to find it in the US, it makes this dish so tasty. I almost felt like I was home. In the store, Sha Cha Sauce is actually spelled 'Sa Cha'. If you cannot find razor clams with shell on, you may substitute razor clams with Manila clams. It will be also delicious.
