Creamy White Clam Sauce image

This is my own sauce, though I'm sure it is similar to many others. I usually use this with fettuccini, but it is excellent with black/squid ink pasta.

Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons butter
1 (10 ounce) can whole clams
2 garlic cloves, smashed (lay garlic clove on board and smash, remove skin, do not chop)
1 (8 ounce) bottle clam juice
1 cup white wine
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 medium tomatoes, chopped (see note) (optional)

Steps:

  • Melt butter in heavy skillet over med/low heat.
  • 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.
