LINGUINI WITH CLAM SAUCE
Nothing beats fresh clam sauce, unless you're hungry and have only your pantry to work with. This version of a favorite is made entirely out of the kitchen cupboard, with the exception of flat leaf parsley, which I most always have on hand.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add salt and the linguini and cook to an extra chewy al dente, 7 minutes or so. The linguini will continue to cook in sauce, later. To a large skillet heated over medium heat, add oil, anchovies, garlic, thyme and red pepper flakes. Cook together until anchovies melt into oil and break up completely. Add wine to the pan and give the pan a shake. Add clams and their juice. Drain pasta and add it to the clam sauce. Toss and coat the pasta in sauce with clams until the pasta absorbs the flavor and juices, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and season with salt, add parsley and serve.

LINGUINE WITH CLAM SAUCE
Purists may object, but canned clams are a great weeknight pantry stalwart. When fresh ones are out of reach, or when you've decided you need a briny fix, the canned clam is reliable no matter the season. This recipe calls for dry vermouth, which adds a subtle herbaceous layer of flavor. (Vermouth has a long shelf life when stored properly, and it's great to have on hand to make a last-minute pan sauce.) Canned clams are already salty, so be mindful of oversalting the pasta water or the sauce. The dish is finished with lemon zest for brightness and butter for silkiness. The best part? The whole thing can be on the table in the same amount of time it takes to boil water.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until 2 minutes short of al dente (it will finish cooking in the sauce). Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain pasta.
- While the pasta cooks, make your sauce: Heat the oil in a deep-sided 12-inch skillet over medium. Add the garlic, red-pepper flakes and oregano and cook until the garlic is pale golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the vermouth and simmer until reduced by half, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the clams with their juices and cook until just warmed through, 1 to 2 minutes more. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
- Add the cooked pasta directly to the skillet along with the butter and lemon zest and toss until the butter has melted and the pasta is glossy with sauce. If needed, add 1/4 cup reserved pasta water. Stir in half the parsley.
- Serve pasta topped with a drizzle of olive oil, if desired, and the remaining parsley. Serve lemon wedges alongside if you like.

This is an easy, inexpensive, white clam sauce. Try it over any kind of pasta; lemon pepper linguine is especially tasty. Extend the sauce for larger portions by adding in one half cup of chicken broth.

LINGUINI WITH CLAM SAUCE (WHITE)
This is a recipe I make often. It is a quick and easy dinner that everyone in my house eats (including my two children ages 4 and 8). I confess to using a little grated romano cheese on my serving, although my husband claims "real italians" do not put cheese on fish. I just tell him he doesn't have to eat from my dish!

Tips:
- Fresh and High-Quality Ingredients: Use fresh and high-quality ingredients, especially the clams and pancetta, for the best flavor.
- Clean the Clams Properly: Soak the clams in cold water for at least 30 minutes before cooking to remove any sand or grit. Scrub the shells thoroughly to remove any barnacles or debris.
- Don't Overcook the Clams: Clams cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Overcooked clams become tough and rubbery.
- Use Good Quality Pancetta: Pancetta adds a rich, salty flavor to the sauce. Look for high-quality pancetta that is not too fatty.
- Deglaze the Pan: When you add the white wine to the pan, scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. This will add flavor to the sauce.
- Simmer the Sauce: Let the sauce simmer for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Season to Taste: Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes.
- Serve Immediately: Linguini with clam and pancetta sauce is best served immediately. The pasta will absorb the sauce and become soggy if it sits for too long.
Conclusion:
Linguini with clam and pancetta sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make seafood pasta dish. With its briny clams, salty pancetta, and flavorful sauce, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table. It's perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner.
