LINGUINE WITH CLAMS, ROASTED TOMATOES AND CARAMELIZED GARLIC



Linguine With Clams, Roasted Tomatoes and Caramelized Garlic image

Here is a very cool recipe that calls for roasting cherry tomatoes with garlic and oil, then using that mixture as the base of a pasta sauce heavy with clams. The juxtaposition of the slick linguine with the roasted, caramelized tomatoes and garlic, as well as the soft, briny clams, is an uncommon delight. Work hard to make sure not to overcook the pasta, so that it may finish in the sauce.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

14 garlic cloves
2 pints cherry tomatoes, a mix of colors is nice
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more for drizzling
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
Salt
1 pound dry linguine
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 cup dry white wine
4 dozen littleneck clams, scrubbed
1/4 cup torn mint leaves

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Smash and peel 8 garlic cloves; peel and finely chop the remaining 6. Toss the smashed garlic with the tomatoes, 2 tablespoons of oil, fine sea salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Spread the tomatoes out in a layer in one or two baking pans (make sure they aren't too crowded, so they don't steam) and roast tomatoes, tossing occasionally, until bursting, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • In a large pot of heavily salted boiling water, cook the pasta until it is 2 minutes from being done to taste. Drain.
  • Return the pasta pot to medium-high heat. Warm 4 tablespoons oil in the pot. Add the chopped garlic and red pepper flakes; cook for 30 seconds. Add the wine and let simmer 2 minutes. Stir in the roasted tomatoes and garlic. Add the clams. Cover the pot and cook until the clams open, 5 to 10 minutes. Use tongs to transfer open clams to a bowl; discard any that do not open.
  • Add the pasta and 3/4 teaspoon black pepper to the sauce in the pot. Cook, tossing, until pasta is just cooked through. Return the clams to the pot and toss with the pasta. Divide mixture among serving bowls. Garnish with mint and drizzle with more oil.

DOUBLE-TOMATO PASTA SALAD



Double-Tomato Pasta Salad image

For full-spectrum tomato flavor, this pasta salad pairs fresh tomatoes with sun-dried tomatoes. The sun-dried tomato oil and the water that's released from salted tomatoes serve as a built-in dressing. Nuts and herbs add crunch and freshness, but you should feel free to add more embellishments right before serving, like mozzarella or shaved Parmesan, white beans or chickpeas, sardines or another tinned fish, or briny condiments like capers or olives.

Categories     dinner, easy, lunch, weeknight, pastas, salads and dressings, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (7- to 8-ounce) jar sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil
1 1/2 cups raw pine nuts, walnuts, hazelnuts or almonds, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, finely grated
Kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
Freshly ground black pepper
1 pound long or twirly noodles, like linguine or fusilli
2 pounds ripe tomatoes
Lemon juice or red wine vinegar, to taste
2 cups torn basil, mint, dill or arugula leaves, or a combination

Steps:

  • Holding back the sun-dried tomatoes with your fingers, drain the oil from the jar into a large pot. Coarsely chop the sun-dried tomatoes and add them to the pot, along with the nuts and olive oil. Set over medium-low and cook, stirring often, until the nuts are toasted, 5 to 6 minutes. Scrape into a large bowl (reserve the pot), then stir in the garlic and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper.
  • Fill the reserved pot with water (no need to wash) and bring to a boil. Season water with salt, add the pasta and cook until just past al dente. (The pasta will not cook further in the sauce.) Drain the pasta.
  • While the water is coming to a boil, coarsely chop the ripe tomatoes. Add to the sun-dried tomato mixture, season with 1 teaspoon salt and stir to combine. (Tomato mixture can be made up to 2 hours ahead.)
  • Add the drained pasta to the tomato mixture and stir to combine. Let sit until room temperature, about 15 minutes or up to 2 hours. Pasta salad will keep up to 3 days if refrigerated.
  • When ready to eat, taste the pasta salad. If flavors are muted, add salt and lemon juice or red wine vinegar. If it's too sweet, add black pepper and lemon juice or red wine vinegar. Stir in the greens and eat.

Tips for Cooking Linguine with Cherry Tomatoes:

  • Use Fresh, High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your dish. Choose fresh, ripe cherry tomatoes and fragrant basil for the best results.
  • Cook the Pasta Al Dente: "Al dente" means "to the tooth" in Italian, indicating that the pasta should be cooked until it still has a slight bite to it. This ensures that the pasta remains firm and flavorful.
  • Use a Generous Amount of Olive Oil: Olive oil adds richness and flavor to the dish. Don't be afraid to use a generous amount, as it will help to create a flavorful sauce.
  • Cook the Tomatoes Briefly: Overcooking the tomatoes will cause them to lose their fresh flavor and texture. Cook them just until they begin to soften and release their juices.
  • Add Fresh Herbs and Spices: Fresh herbs like basil and oregano, as well as spices like garlic and red pepper flakes, add depth of flavor to the dish. Don't be afraid to experiment with different combinations to find your preferred taste.
  • Serve Immediately: This dish is best enjoyed fresh, as the pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become soggy if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Linguine with cherry tomatoes is a simple yet flavorful pasta dish that showcases the beauty of fresh, seasonal ingredients. With its vibrant colors, aromatic herbs, and juicy tomatoes, this dish is sure to impress your taste buds. Follow these tips and you'll be able to create a delicious and authentic Italian meal in the comfort of your own home.
