Linguine with White Clam Sauce
RECIPE COURTESY OF ANNE BURRELL
Level: Easy
Total: 40 min
Prep: 15 min
Cook: 25 min
Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients
Extra-virgin olive oil
9 cloves garlic, smashed
5 dozen littleneck clams, scrubbed under cold running water
1 cup white wine
1/2 cup water
1 large pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1 pound linguine
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley leaves
2 tablespoons chopped oregano leaves
1 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, optional, plus shavings for garnish
Kosher salt
Big fat finishing extra-virgin olive oil (high quality)
Directions
Coat a large saute pan with olive oil and add half the garlic cloves. Bring the pan to a medium- high heat and cook until the garlic becomes golden brown. When the garlic is golden brown and very aromatic, remove it and discard, it has fulfilled its garlic destiny. Put 3 1/2 dozen clams in the pan with the wine and 1/2 cup of water. Cover the pan and bring it to a boil over medium heat. Cover and cook until the clams open, about 10 minutes. Remove the clams from the pan and reduce the cooking liquid. Let the clams cool slightly, then remove them from the shells and reserve. Discard the shells. Pour the cooking liquid into a measuring cup.
Bring a large pot of well salted water to a boil over medium heat.
Coat the same saute pan again with olive oil and add the remaining garlic cloves and a large pinch of crushed pepper flakes. Bring the pan to a medium-high heat and cook until the garlic becomes golden brown. When the garlic is golden brown and very aromatic, remove it and discard, it has fulfilled its garlic destiny. Add the remaining raw clams and reserved clam cooking liquid to the pan. When adding the reserved clam liquid, be sure to check for sand and grit in the bottom, you may lose the last couple of tablespoons of juice but that is better than sand in your pasta! Cover and cook until the clams open.
While the clams are cooking, drop the linguine into the salted boiling water and cook until the pasta is very al dente maybe a minute or so less than the box directs.
Remove the cooked clams in their shells from the pan and keep warm. Add the butter and cooked clams that have been removed from their shells back to the pan. Bring the liquid to a boil and toss in the cooked pasta and the herbs. Cook the pasta together with the sauce until the sauce clings to the pasta. Turn off the heat and toss in the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, if using, and finish with a drizzle of big fat finishing oil. Toss or stir vigorously to combine.
Divide the pasta into serving dishes and garnish with the clams that are still in their shells and a little more shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano, if desired.
This won't make you want to clam up!

Easy and Delicious White Clam Sauce with Linguini Recipe
Today we are preparing White Clam Sauce with Linguini! Fresh clams are a must for this White Clam Sauce recipe. This is a simple recipe using only a few fresh ingredients, such as Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Garlic, lemon, parsley, basil, and of course, baby clams.
In the Liguria region of Italy, east of Genoa, Spaghetti alle vongole (veraci) means spaghetti with small baby clams in the shell, with a white wine/garlic sauce. Linguine also may be used for the pasta in preference to spaghetti in which we used for this White Calm Sauce recipe.

How To Make The Best Linguine With White Clam Sauce
Linguine with clams (vongole) is a super simple recipe that's loaded with delicious seafood flavor. I used canned baby clams and fresh Littleneck clams, but other types of clams or mussels can be used for this Italian classic white clam sauce.

Instant Pot Linguine with White Clam Sauce
This was one of the very first things I tried making in my Instant Pot when I first got one years ago and it’s still one of my favorites! The recipe has evolved over time and this is my most recent iteration. It’s so full of clammy goodness and has a perfectly balanced sauce with satisfyingly al dente linguine noodles. I love the extra flavor boost from the anchovy paste! Follow this recipe as is the first time, then adjust your seasonings according to your own tastes.
NOTES:
• Buying Canned Clams: I used chopped clams because I like big chunks of meat throughout, but you can use minced, whole, or a mix between all three. Keep an eye out for sales to stock your pantry so you’re ready to make this the next time the craving hits. Depending on the brand, these 6.5oz cans of chopped clams usually run about $3-4 each, but I grabbed up a bunch of these Snow’s (a Bumble Bee brand) on sale at $2 each. Other brands I tried for making this video were Bar Harbor and Chicken of Sea. They worked out just fine, but in my opinion, the Snow’s just tasted better were more consistent from can to can.
• Clam Juice and Chicken Broth Total: You will need a total of 4 cups liquid between the clam juice and chicken broth to work with one pound of linguine. I point this out because not all brands are equal and not all cans within a brand are consistent. Every can of Snow’s that I’ve ever bought has had ½ cup juice with ½ cup meat. Bar Harbor also had ½ cup juice, but seemed to have just a pinch more meat than ½ cup. Chicken of the Sea had ¾ cup juice, but only ¼ cup meat. My point is this: Whichever brand you’re using, strain and measure out how much juice you have in total and then use enough chicken broth so that the total comes out to 4 cups. And if you want to clam it up with more cans, adjust the broth down accordingly.

Instant Vortex Plus 6-in-1 Air Fryer, 6 Quart, 6 One-Touch Programs, Air Fry, Roast, Broil, Bake, Reheat, and Dehydrate:
Today’s Ingredients:
4 TB butter (¼ cup)
4 TB extra virgin olive oil (¼ cup)
4 oz shallots, chopped
6 garlic cloves, minced
zest from 1 large lemon (about 1 TB)
1 TB anchovy paste (or 6 anchovy fillets)
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried thyme
½ tsp red pepper flakes
½ tsp black pepper
½ cup dry white wine (sauvignon blanc in the video)
juice from 1 large lemon (about ⅓ cup)
2 cups chicken broth (Better-than-Bouillon and water in the video)
4x 6.5oz cans chopped clams, strained to separate juice and meat for a total of 2 cups each
1 lb uncooked linguine (pot-sized or broken in half to fit into the pot)
½ cup chopped parsley, plus extra for serving
½ cup grated parmesan, plus extra for serving
Optionals for serving: parmesan cheese, fresh parsley, lemon wedges
Instructions:
1. Preheat the Instant Pot on the highest sauté setting. When the display reads “HOT,” add the butter and olive oil and allow the butter to melt. Then add the chopped shallots and cook, stirring once or twice, for just a few minutes until softened.
2. Add the garlic, lemon zest, anchovy paste (or anchovy fillets), oregano, thyme, red pepper flakes, and black pepper. Cook for just one minute, stirring to break up the anchovy paste (or fillets).
3. Add the white wine and stir to deglaze the bottom of the pot. There shouldn’t be much, but make sure to scrape up any stuck-on bits for added flavor and to avoid getting a “BURN” warning later.
4. Stir in the lemon juice, chicken broth, and clam juice to combine. Then layer the linguine over the top in a cross-hatch pattern. Use a spoon or spatula to press the noodles down into the liquid but don’t stir up the bottom. It’s okay if the noodles aren’t fully submerged – as long as they are touching the liquid, it will bubble and steam upwards to cook them all.
5. Lock and seal the lid and cook for 6 minutes on high followed by a quick pressure release. Stir to separate the noodles and give it a taste check – adjust salt and pepper to your liking.
6. Stir in the reserved clam meat, ½ cup chopped parsley, and ½ cup parmesan. Cover loosely for 10-15 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken and absorb fully into the noodles.
7. Serve with extra parmesan, parsley, and lemon wedges and ENJOY!
