SPAGHETTI WITH CLAMS

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound dried spaghetti
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 shallots, thinly sliced
5 to 7 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 1/2 pounds Manila clams, scrubbed clean
1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, diced into small cubes
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, zested, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large pot, bring to a boil 6 quarts of salted water. Add pasta, stirring constantly in the beginning to prevent it from sticking together. Cook until al dente, about 8 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large saute pan. When almost smoking, add shallots and garlic and saute until soft and translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic. Add the clams and wine. Cover and simmer for 6 to 8 minutes or until most clams have opened.
  • Add 2 tablespoons chopped parsley. Whisk in butter to thicken sauce slightly.
  • Drain pasta in a colander. Do not rinse pasta with water - this will remove the pasta's natural starches. Place pasta into the clam saute pan and mix thoroughly. Check seasoning.
  • Pour pasta into large serving bowl. Zest lemon over the dish, being carefull not to zest the white part of the lemon, which is bitter. Garnish with remaining parsley. Serve immediately.

SPAGHETTI WITH CLAMS



Spaghetti With Clams image

For me, spaghetti with clams has to be ''white,'' which is to say without a tomato in sight -- and actually the first time I ate it this way was not in Italy but in one of my favorite Italian restaurants in New York, Da Silvano. This was a very long time ago, and I've been hooked ever since. I have specified amounts for a single portion here, because I feel cooking food you love is never something that should be reserved for company. Besides, this is quick and easy to make, and it's important sometimes to give yourself the treat of the perfect supper alone.

Categories     dinner, quick, pastas, appetizer, main course

Time 15m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 8

Salt
8 to 12 littleneck or other small clams in the shell, scrubbed
1/4 pound spaghetti
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 to 1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 dried red chili pepper or 1/4 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
1/3 cup Noilly Prat or other vermouth or white wine
1 to 2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, soak clams in cold water.
  • Add spaghetti to boiling water, and cook until slightly underdone; pasta will finish cooking in sauce. Meanwhile, place a large saucepan over medium-low heat, and add olive oil, garlic and chili pepper. Sauté gently, reducing heat if necessary so garlic does not brown.
  • Add vermouth and clams, and cover. Clams should open in about 2 minutes. (If pasta is ready first, drain it and toss with a small amount of olive oil.) Add hot drained pasta, cover, and shake pot gently. Allow to simmer for another 1 or 2 minutes until it is done to taste.
  • Discard any clams that have not opened. Add half the parsley, and shake pan to distribute evenly. Transfer to a plate or bowl, and sprinkle with remaining parsley.

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 ounces pasta, spaghettini
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 (10 ounce) can baby clams, reserve drained liquid
1/4 cup white wine
2 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon parsley, dried is fine
salt & pepper, to taste

  • When pasta is ready to your liking, drain and add to skillet along with clams.
  • Stir well to mix everything -- divide between 2 plates -- top with toasted breadcrumbs and parsley -- serve immediately with tossed salad.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh clams. If you can't find fresh clams, you can use frozen clams, but be sure to thaw them before cooking.
  • To make the most of the corn's flavor, use fresh corn on the cob. If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen corn kernels, but be sure to thaw them before cooking.
  • If you don't have white wine, you can use dry vermouth or chicken broth instead.
  • Be careful not to overcook the clams. They should be cooked just until they open.
  • Serve the spaghettini with a sprinkle of chopped parsley or basil.
