Basic Pasta alle Vongole instructions
- Add the β ingredients to a pan and heat. The black thin ingredient on the left of the photo are sundried tomatoes marinated in oil. It's not a basic ingredient, but it add richness to the flavor..
- When the pan is fragrant, add clams β white wine β water β tomatoes in that order. Cut the tomatoes in half beforehand, and crush them as you add them to the pan. Cover with a lid and simmer over high heat..
- Don't remove the lid until the clams all open up. When they are all open, you won't hear noise from the pan. Turn off the heat and wait for the pasta to finish cooking..
- Add the perfectly-timed pasta to the pan and toss with the other ingredients. Linguine soaks in the flavors well and it doesn't get too soggy..
- Turn off the heat, drizzle extra virgin olive oil and pepper, toss again, and it's done! I had a bit too much of everything this time, so I transferred it to a larger pot halfway through..
