I'm not a big fan of clams, but I really enjoyed this dish. The sauce was so good that I could have eaten it on its own.

The pasta was overcooked and the sauce was too salty. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sauce turned out watery. I think I may have added too much liquid.
