Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons kosher or coarse sea salt
1 pound linguine
12 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 pound New Zealand cockles or 24 Manila or littleneck clams, scrubbed
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 cup dry white wine
1 (14-ounce) can whole San Marzano tomatoes in juice, juice reserved and tomatoes coarsely chopped
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • In large pot over moderately high heat, combine 8 quarts of water to boil and salt. Bring to boil, then add linguine and cook to 1 minute short of al dente according to package directions (pasta should still be quite firm).
  • Meanwhile, in large sauté pan over moderately high heat, heat 6 tablespoons extra- olive oil until hot but not smoking. Add garlic and sauté until just golden, about 30 seconds. Add clams and 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes and sauté 1 minute. Add wine, tomatoes and juice, and 1/2 cup parsley and simmer, uncovered, just until clams open, 7 to 8 minutes.
  • Reserve 1/2 cup cooking water, then drain linguine and add to pan. Simmer, tossing occasionally, until linguine is just tender, about 1 minute. If necessary, add some of reserved cooking water to keep moist. Remove from heat. Add remaining 2 tablespoons parsley, 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, and extra-virgin olive oil, tossing to coat. Transfer to serving dish and serve immediately.

4 garlic cloves, slivered
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 pounds littleneck or Manila clams, scrubbed and rinsed well

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 handfuls fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped

Yield Makes 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
6 canned anchovy fillets, drained, chopped
3 large garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
2 14 1/2-ounce cans Italian-style diced tomatoes
4 6 1/2-ounce cans chopped clams
1/2 cup dry red wine
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 pound linguine, freshly cooked
Chopped fresh parsley
Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté 3 minutes. Add anchovies, garlic and dried red pepper; sauté 2 minutes. Mix in tomatoes with juices, clams with juices, wine and tomato paste. Bring sauce to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
  • Add linguine to sauce and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to large bowl. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve with Parmesan cheese, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use fresh clams: Fresh clams are essential for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh clams, frozen clams are a good substitute.
  • Properly clean the clams: Before cooking, the clams must be properly cleaned to remove any sand or grit. Soak them in cold water for 30 minutes, then scrub them with a brush to remove any debris.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is the base of the sauce, so it's important to use a good quality oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice.
  • Don't overcook the clams: Clams only take a few minutes to cook. Overcooking them will make them tough and rubbery.
  • Add the parsley at the end: Parsley is a classic garnish for clam sauce. Add it just before serving to preserve its fresh flavor.
