Steps:
- In a large bowl, rinse the clams under cold running water and gently rub them together with your hands to allow any sand to rinse off their shells. Rinse and drain a few times. Leave them in cold water until ready to cook them.
- In a large saucepan, heat olive oil over low heat and add the garlic. Saute the garlic for only 1 minute to be fragrant (no need to brown the garlic). Toss in about 1/2 of the chopped parsley, and reserve the other half for later.
- Meanwhile, drain the clams into a colander and quickly transfer them directly to the pot with garlic and olive oil. Add in the crushed red pepper and salt. Cover. Stir the clams after a minute.
- Allow the clams to steam and simmer with the garlic for about 2 minutes. Pour in white wine and clam juice and cover again, continue to steam the clams, stirring occasionally, for about 2 to 3 minutes. Their shells will open gradually. Once all clams are fully opened, turn off the heat. No need to overcook them.
- Toss in the remaining chopped parsley. If serving alone, transfer clams along with broth to a large serving bowl and serve.
- Also, if you are planning to serve clams with spaghetti or linguine, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add some salt (about 1 tsp.) and toss in the pasta. Cook the pasta to al-dente. Using a ladle spoon, grab some of the salted water (about 1/4 cup) from the pasta, and add it to the clams.
- Drain pasta, and transfer pasta to the pot with all the clams and broth.
- Stir and serve into individual serving bowls. Garnish on top with more clams in shells and sprinkle on top with freshly chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
- Serves 4 to 5

Steps:
- Preheat a grill: If using a charcoal grill, make a fire in your grill with the coals placed off to one side. When the coals are completely covered in gray ash, hold your hand about 5 inches above the grill grid; count how many seconds you can comfortably leave it there. When you can hold it there for 2 to 3 seconds, you have medium-high heat and are ready to grill. If you are using a gas grill, heat the grill for 15 minutes with the lid closed. Before beginning to cook, reduce the temperature by turning the knobs to medium-high.
- Place a large heatproof pan on grill near, but not over, the hottest side of the grill. Add butter and garlic and cook until butter is melted, about 3 minutes. Add tomatoes and white wine.
- Place clams directly over fire on grill and cook until opened, transferring clams to pan as they open. Season clams with salt and pepper; sprinkle with parsley. Serve immediately with grilled bread.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in large pan (use enough to lightly coats bottom -- about 3 TBSP).
- Saute garlic until a little soft (DO NOT let it brown).
- Place clams in pan on top of oil & garlic (try to place in single layer, but can be double on top of each other).
- Add enough white wine to barely cover/meet the middle of the clams.
- Add crushed red pepper and thyme (you can change the amounts to your liking -- I usually make it pretty spicy).
- Cover with a tight lid and steam until all clams have opened (I use a clear glass top so I can watch them and not have to take the lid off, but you don't have to).
- Poor into large bowl and serve.
- Enjoy with some crusty bread for dipping in the sauce.

Tips:
- Use fresh clams: Fresh clams are essential for this dish. Look for clams that are tightly closed and have a briny smell. Avoid clams that are open or have a foul odor.
- Purge the clams: Purging the clams helps to remove any sand or grit that may be inside. Place the clams in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for 30 minutes. Change the water a few times during this process.
- Use a good quality white wine: The white wine you use in this dish should be of good quality. A dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio, is a good choice.
- Don't overcook the clams: Clams cook quickly, so it's important not to overcook them. Once the clams have opened, they are done cooking.
- Serve immediately: Clams are best served immediately after they are cooked. They can be served as an appetizer or main course.
Conclusion:
Clams in garlic white wine is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. The clams are cooked in a flavorful sauce made with white wine, garlic, and butter. The dish can be served as an appetizer or main course and is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
