Directions
Preheat oven to 400 F. Mix butter and bread crumbs thoroughly. A food processor may be used if desired. Place soy sauce, lemon juice and horseradish in a bowl. Mix in bacon, green pepper, green onions, celery and parsley. Fold in bread crumb mixture. Shuck clams and place in half-shells.
Top each with bread crumb and vegetable mixture. Bake in preheated oven until brown. Note: Clams must be chopped somewhat if using a size larger than cherrystones. Use smoked bacon for more taste. Soy sauce is used in place of salt and other flavor enhancers. As a variation, oysters may be used in place of clams. Also, fresh Maryland backfin crabmeat may be added to butter topping.
