LINGUINE PASTA ALLE VONGOLE (LINGUINE WITH CLAMS)

Steps:

• Chop the peeled garlic and parsley finely. If using a whole fresh or dried red chili chop finely too. Remove the seeds to make it milder. Be careful not to touch your eyes or mouth after doing this and wash your hands well before continuing to cook.
• Wash the clams in cold water and remove any with broken shells. Some kinds of clams need a lot of rinsing if they have sand in them. But you can also filter the liquid after you have precooked them, so don't worry so much about the sand.
• Put a pot of water on to boil for the pasta. When it starts to boil add the pasta. You probably don't need salt as the clams will already be a little salty.
• While the water is boiling for the pasta, put the clams in a deep frying pan and cook covered over a medium to high heat until they have opened. (about 5 minutes)
• Allow the clams to cool a little and then remove the meat from most of the clam shells keeping some intact. Discard the empty shells and, if necessary, filter the liquid that the clams have produced. Don't discard it.
• Cook the pasta al dente according to the instructions on the packet.
• Heat half the olive oil in a frying pan or skillet. Add the garlic and peperoncino. Cook until the garlic starts to soften. Add the clams (with shells and without) with their liquid to the pan and cook for a few minutes. Then, add the white wine and cook further until the alcohol evaporates. Finally, add the parsley and the rest of the olive oil. Continue cooking for another 3-5 minutes and then turn off the heat.
• When the pasta is cooked, drain it and add to the pan with the cooked clams. Mix everything together well and serve immediately with another sprinkling of chopped parsley, if required.

LINGUINI WITH RED CLAM SAUCE (LINGUINI CON LE VONGOLE AL SUGO)

Steps:

• A Neopolitan custom is to let the clams soak in very cold water with a tsp of salt and the juice of one lemon for about 1/2 hour.
• This will remove any sand or grit in the clams.
• This step is optional, but I do suggest that you at least scrub the outer shells of the littlenecks quite well with a vegetable brush.
• Bring a large stockpot of water to a boil for the linguini.
• In another pan, heat olive oil over medium high heat.
• Add shallots and crushed red pepper and sauté until shallots are softened.
• Add chopped garlic and anchovies, and saute until anchovies begin to melt into the olive oil, careful not to let garlic get too dark.
• Carefully add chopped tomatoes with their liquid.
• Stir to combine, and add dried basil and oregano.
• Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer sauce until ready to cook clams and linguini.
• Add little neck clams to the simmering tomato sauce, stir to coat well, and cover.
• While clams begin to steam in sauce, generously salt the boiling pasta water, add linguini, and cook until al dente, (about 7 minutes).
• As clams begin to open, I remove them to a large bowl and cover, until pasta and remaining clams are cooked.
• Drain pasta, and transfer to a serving bowl.
• Top with tomato sauce and toss with chopped fresh basil.
• Finally, add cooked clams over top the pasta, still in their shells.
