["In a large pot, bring all ingredients except seafood and corn to a boil, cooking until potatoes are almost tender, 8-10 minutes. Tip: The husband utilized a tea infuser for the loose spices.", "Add clams, cooking 2-3 minutes more.", "Add corn and prawns, cooking 1-2 more minute just until corn is tender, clams open up, and prawns are cooked through (do not overcook). Husband: ""I also checked the prawns and corn after a minute and ended up cooking them for about 3 minutes total. It really depends how the corn does."".", "Remove from heat and cover if it needs a few seconds more cook time before draining in a large colander and *saving* the liquid. Serve immediately. Great with crusty bread to sop up the broth!", "To serve: Place the broth in one serving bowl and the remaining ingredients in another. Spoon the seafood/sausage mixture into individual soup bowls then ladle some broth into the bowl. Have another large bowl handy on the table for the discarded shells.", "Idea: if you have any broth leftover, it worked quite well for cooking up a pot of white rice the next day by replacing broth for water."]
