Add onion, shiitakes and chorizo and cook until onion is softened, about 8 minutes. Add Cinzano and bring to a boil. Add Basic Tomato Sauce, wine and clams, cover and cook until clams are open, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, slice baguette as if to make a submarine sandwich. Brush bread with wine, then oil.
