I'm vegan, so I used tofu instead of clams. The dish was delicious!

I'm allergic to clams, so I substituted shrimp. The dish was still very good!

The clams were gritty and the linguine was overcooked. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I followed the recipe exactly and the dish turned out bland. I think I'll add more garlic and red pepper flakes next time.

This herbed clam linguine is a seafood lover's delight! The clams are cooked to perfection and the linguine is perfectly al dente. The broth is flavorful and the herbs add a nice touch of freshness.
