The essentials for a really good linguine alle vongole: fresh clams (littlenecks or Manila clams work great), good olive oil, garlic, white wine, and a hefty pinch of red pepper flakes. A splash of the pasta cooking water at the end helps everything come together into a light sauce that clings to the pasta.


Fresh parsley stirred in right before serving adds brightness. Some people add a bit of butter at the end for richness, but the classic version stays pretty light and lets the clams shine. The biggest key is not overcooking the clams — pull them out as soon as they open so they stay tender instead of rubbery.
