OLD-FASHIONED LINGUINE WITH WHITE CLAM SAUCE

Steps:

• In a 5 qt pot, heat water to a boil and cook pasta until al dente.
• While the pasta is cooking, melt butter and olive oil in pan.
• Sautee onion and garlic, and add crushed red pepper flakes.
• Add lemon juice, oregano, basil, and Old Bay seasoning, stir for one minute Add clams with juice.
• Simmer for 5 minutes.
• Drain pasta and place in large bowl.
• Cover pasta with clam sauce, stir well and top with parsley and parmesan cheese.

LINGUINE WITH CLAMS

Steps:

• Soak the clams in cool water for about 30 minutes to expel the sand. Gently scrub the shells to remove any debris.
• Bring a large pot of heavily salted water (it should taste like the sea) to a boil. Add the pasta to the water and cook until slightly less than al dente.
• In a large braiser or sauté pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, shallots, anchovies and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring, until the shallots are soft, about 3 minutes.
• Add the clams in a single layer, along with a sprinkle of the parsley and the wine. Cover the pan with a lid and steam, shaking the pan occasionally, until the clams open up, 4 to 5 minutes. Discard any clams that remain closed. Transfer the clams to a bowl and set aside.
• Strain or transfer the pasta and add it directly to the pan with the clam sauce along with a drizzle of olive oil, tossing to combine. Let the pasta finish cooking with the sauce until the sauce thickens, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add the remaining parsley to the pan and toss, then top with the clams and another drizzle of oil. Serve.

PASTA WITH WHITE CLAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions. In a saucepan, saute garlic and anchovies in oil for 3 minutes, breaking up anchovies. Stir in the clam juice, clams, water, oregano, parsley, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes or until sauce is reduced by half. Drain pasta; toss with clam sauce. Sprinkle with Parmesan.

LINGUINE WITH CLAMS, CHILE, AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• If using dough, roll the dough through a pasta machine on each setting from widest to narrowest. Roll once more through the narrowest setting. Cut the dough into 12-inch-long sheets with a sharp knife, then pass the sheets through the linguine cutter. Toss with semolina flour to prevent sticking. You can cover the pasta with a damp paper towel, then plastic wrap, and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
• Stir together the clam juice and wine. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it generously.
• Heat the oil in a large sauté pan with a lid over medium-high heat. Add the carrot, leek, celery, garlic, chile, and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until golden, about 4 minutes. Add the clams and clam juice mixture, cover, and cook, shaking the pan occasionally, just until the clams open, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the linguine to the boiling water and cook until al dente, about 3 minutes. Drain and add to the clam mixture. Cook, tossing gently, until the pasta is glazed with the sauce.
• Transfer to shallow serving bowls and sprinkle the ground chile all over. Garnish with the parsley and serve immediately.

LINGUINE WITH LEMON CLAM SAUCE

Steps:

• I usually make this in my non-stick wok.
• Heat oil and butter on medium heat and saute onion and garlic until soft and tender, not brown.
• Add basil and bay leaf.
• Pour in wine, lemon rind, lemon juice and reserved clam juice.
• Simmer until reduced a little (by about a third).
• Add clams and heat through.
• Toss in the cooked linguine a little at a time (don't make the mistake of adding too much or the sauce will be lost!) and lastly add the cheese and parsley.
• Serve with more cheese on the side and red pepper flakes (optional) and warm garlic bread.
