Linguine with White Clam Sauce is one of Anne Burrell's favorite "happy foods." Get this simple recipe from Secrets of a Restaurant Chef on Food Network.

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Extra-virgin olive oil
9 cloves garlic, smashed
5 dozen littleneck clams, scrubbed under cold running water
1 cup white wine
1/2 cup water
1 large pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1 pound linguine
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley leaves
2 tablespoons chopped oregano leaves
1 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, optional, plus shavings for garnish
Kosher salt
Big fat finishing extra-virgin olive oil (high quality)

Steps:

  • Coat a large saute pan with olive oil and add half the garlic cloves. Bring the pan to a medium- high heat and cook until the garlic becomes golden brown. When the garlic is golden brown and very aromatic, remove it and discard, it has fulfilled its garlic destiny. Put 3 1/2 dozen clams in the pan with the wine and 1/2 cup of water. Cover the pan and bring it to a boil over medium heat. Cover and cook until the clams open, about 10 minutes. Remove the clams from the pan and reduce the cooking liquid. Let the clams cool slightly, then remove them from the shells and reserve. Discard the shells. Pour the cooking liquid into a measuring cup.
  • Bring a large pot of well salted water to a boil over medium heat.
  • Coat the same saute pan again with olive oil and add the remaining garlic cloves and a large pinch of crushed pepper flakes. Bring the pan to a medium-high heat and cook until the garlic becomes golden brown. When the garlic is golden brown and very aromatic, remove it and discard, it has fulfilled its garlic destiny. Add the remaining raw clams and reserved clam cooking liquid to the pan. When adding the reserved clam liquid, be sure to check for sand and grit in the bottom, you may lose the last couple of tablespoons of juice but that is better than sand in your pasta! Cover and cook until the clams open.
  • While the clams are cooking, drop the linguine into the salted boiling water and cook until the pasta is very "al dente" maybe a minute or so less than the box directs.
  • Remove the cooked clams in their shells from the pan and keep warm. Add the butter and cooked clams that have been removed from their shells back to the pan. Bring the liquid to a boil and toss in the cooked pasta and the herbs. Cook the pasta together with the sauce until the sauce clings to the pasta. Turn off the heat and toss in the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, if using, and finish with a drizzle of big fat finishing oil. Toss or stir vigorously to combine.
  • Divide the pasta into serving dishes and garnish with the clams that are still in their shells and a little more shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano, if desired.
  • This won't make you want to clam up!

SPICY CLAM DIP



Spicy Clam Dip image

In this chile-flecked take on a classic 1950s clam dip, the cream cheese-based mixture is spooned into a gratin dish, sprinkled with Parmesan and baked until the topping melts and the dip turns molten and savory. Canned clams are traditional here, providing a gentle saline note and nubby texture without an assertive flavor. If you're starting with cream cheese straight from the fridge, soften it briefly in the microwave before adding it to the bowl; cold cream cheese is a lot harder to mix.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     dips and spreads, appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
2 (6.5-ounce) cans whole clams (1 cup), coarsely chopped (save the clam juice)
1/2 cup packaged, low-moisture grated mozzarella
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
3 tablespoons thinly sliced scallions, plus more for garnish
1 jalapeño, seeded (if desired) and finely chopped
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon hot sauce, plus more to taste
1 teaspoon fish sauce (optional) or clam juice, plus more to taste
Salt, if needed, and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
Potato chips, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, using a fork or rubber spatula, stir and mash together the softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth.
  • Add clams, mozzarella, parsley, scallions, jalapeño, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, fish sauce or a teaspoon of reserved clam juice, and lots of black pepper, and stir until well combined. If the mixture seems thick, stir in a little more reserved clam juice.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings, if necessary. If you think it needs salt, add it lightly, or try adding a little more fish sauce or more clam juice instead. Dip can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator before baking.
  • Transfer mixture to shallow 1-quart ceramic baking dish or gratin dish. Sprinkle Parmesan on top and bake until golden brown and bubbling, about 30 to 35 minutes. Garnish with sliced scallions, and serve hot or warm with potato chips.

LINGUINE WITH WHITE CLAM SAUCE



Linguine with White Clam Sauce image

From your kitchen, tested and approved in ours. One of our Danish fans, Henrik Dan Jensen, perfected this classic meal and says, "White wine, my special ingredient, adds a tiny spark to the sweet clams."

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

Coarse salt
12 ounces linguine
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
3/4 cup dry white wine
2 pounds small clams (50 to 55), such as Manila, rinsed and scrubbed
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup fresh parsley, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta 1 minute less than package instructions for al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water; drain pasta. Set aside.
  • While pasta cooks, heat oil over medium in a Dutch oven or 5-quart heavy pot with a lid. Add onion, garlic, and red-pepper flakes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add wine, and bring to a boil; cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half, about 2 minutes.
  • Add clams; cover, and simmer, shaking pot occasionally, until clams open wide, 3 to 5 minutes. (Discard any that havent opened after 5 minutes.)
  • Add pasta to clam mixture in pot; continue to cook until pasta is al dente, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in butter and parsley. Add some reserved pasta water to thin sauce if necessary; season with salt.

Tips:

  • Use fresh clams: Fresh clams are essential for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh clams, you can use frozen clams, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
  • Choose the right wine: A dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio, will work best in this sauce.
  • Don't overcook the clams: Clams are very delicate and can easily become tough if overcooked. Cook them just until they are opaque throughout.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is made. The pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become soggy if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Linguine with Creamy White Clam Sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of clams, white wine, cream, and garlic creates a flavorful and creamy sauce that is sure to please everyone at the table. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a restaurant-quality meal in the comfort of your own home.
