LINGUINE WITH CLAMS

Steps:

• In a large stockpot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the linguine to the boiling water and cook until al dente according to package instructions. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup pasta water.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat, until it ripples (don't let the oil smoke). Add the garlic and cook until edges are lightly browned. Add the clams and jalapeno, and cook for a minute. Add the wine, tomatoes and their juice and half of the parsley, and cook until the clams open, about 10 minutes.
• Add the linguine to the clam sauce and toss to coat, adding pasta water if needed. Toss in the remaining parsley.

LINGUINI WITH CLAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the linguini, cover the pot, and bring it back to a boil. Remove the cover, stir, and cook until al dente, about 8 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of pasta cooking water. Drain the pasta and set aside. (Reserve 1 cup pasta for the Round 2 Recipe Savory Noodle Pie.)
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat with the oil. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add the lemon juice and the clams with their juices. Cook for 2 minutes to warm the clams through. Add the parsley and butter to the clams and stir. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if needed. Pour the pasta onto a serving platter and pour the clams and sauce over the pasta. Serve immediately.

PASTA MARCO POLO

Steps:

• Put a large pot of water on to boil for pasta.
• Combine sauce ingredients and gently heat. Stir until thickened.
• Toast sesame seeds in a small fry pan until fragrant. Do not over brown.
• In the meantime, cook the pasta until tender but firm. Drain.
• Toss the pasta with the sauce and garnish with scallions and sesame seeds.

LINGUINE WITH CLAMS AND LIME

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 1 teaspoon salt. Add linguine and cook until al dente, about 9 minutes.
• While pasta is cooking, in a large saute pan, heat oil over medium. Add garlic, onion, and chile and saute until onion is translucent, a few minutes. Pour in wine and bring to a boil. Add lime zest and juice and stir well. Add clams, cover with a tight-fitting lid, and cook until they open, 3 to 5 minutes. Uncover and discard any clams that did not open. Turn off heat.
• Drain pasta and add to clams. Cover pan and let rest 5 minutes, so pasta soaks up juices.
• Season with salt and pepper and spoon into individual bowls. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
