Preparation

1.Soak the clams for 1 hour in salted water. Wash them and open them in a pot, straining and reserving the liquid. Add enough water to the clam liquid to make one liter, then taste it. If it's too salty, discard some and replace with fresh water.
2.Soak the bread in this water. Crush two cloves of garlic with cilantro and fry the other two in olive oil until golden. Add the chopped cilantro, chili, and parsley, and stir.
3.Add the clams and sauté for 1 minute. Add the bread, cover, and as it comes to a boil, remove the lid to let it dry out a bit, then remove from heat.

5.Add more seafood and sauté it with onions.
