Linguine with White Clam Sauce See COOK'S NOTES below | |
1 large can | whole clams, (plus liquor) |
4 very large cloves garlic, minced | |
1/2 cup | olive oil |
1/4 tsp | oregano |
1/4 tsp | red pepper flakes |
1/2 cup | clam juice |
1 tbs | parsley |
Salt | |
pepper to taste | |
Additional FRESH parsley for garnish, (optional) |
Cooked linguine or pasta of choice
Heat olive oil in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and saute about 1 minute. Add remaining ingredients, except fresh parsley & linguine.
Bring to boil; cover, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes then either let sit or simmer on a simmer pad over very low heat for about 30 minutes, or transfer to a storage container and refrigerate overnight to be reheated the next day and served over hot pasta.
COOK'S NOTE: Sauté the onions and garlic in 2 tbs olive oil. When soft but not brown, add the clam liquor and broth, and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half. Add remaining ingredients, cook till heated through. Add 1-2 tbs butter to pan and stir just until its incorporated into the sauce.
This way you're cutting the fat in half, intensifying the flavor by reducing the clam juice and thickening the sauce with the final addition of butter. I've made clam linguini this way for 35 years to rave reviews.
