- Pour in the wine and bring to a boil over moderate heat.
- Cook until reduced by half, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Add the reserved clam juice and boil over moderate heat until reduced by about one-third, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Taste and add 1/4 teaspoon more red pepper flakes, if you like.
- Reduce the heat to low, stir in the clams, and cook for 2 minutes.
- Remove the sauce from the heat and stir in 1/4 cup of the parsley and 1/4 cup of the grated Parmesan.
- Stir in the butter until it melts.
- Pour sauce over cooked linguine and toss.
