Best 5 Creamy White Clam Sauce Recipes

CREAMY WHITE CLAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Add whole clams with juice, and garlic. Cook over low heat until clams are heated through and edges begin to curl.
• Remove clams. Add the bottle of clam juice, white wine and heavy cream. Cook about 10 min to reduce slightly. This sauce will be thin. You want a bit of broth in your dish.
• Remove garlic cloves
• Add clams back into sauce and toss with your preferred pasta. I usually use fettuccini
• Note: I often like to add a chopped tomato to this sauce. You would add the tomato after the 10 min cooking time, just to warm the chopped tomato.
