Revel Walker of shared his beloved clams linguine recipe - check it out!
1 lb linguine pasta
50 Seaside Brand littleneck clams
2 shallots
2 cloves garlic
fresh parsley
juice of 1 lemon
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp olive oil
salt + pepper to taste
Leftover white w**e. Revel Walkerβs expert guidance is to open a bottle the night before and drink two glasses; what's left over is about the right amount.
This dish is easy but requires a few steps and will impress your most discerning dinner party guests.
1. Your clams have been cleaned by JC Walker Bros, but give them an extra wash and prep the produce. Finely dice all the shallots, garlic, and parsley.
2. Start steaming your clams on high heat in a large saute pan. Put the clams directly in the pan with just 1/16" of water on the bottom to get them going. When the clams open, they will drop the clam juice you will need for the rest of the recipe. At the same time, start boiling 6qt water for the linguine.
3. Once the clams are open wide, remove and set aside.
4. To the clam juice: add butter, olive oil, shallot and garlic. Cook until soft, add lemon juice, simmer and cover until the pasta water reaches a rolling boil.
5. Cook the linguine al dente. Whatever the cook time says on the box, take off a minute β you want the pasta to absorb the sauce youβre creating.
6. While the pasta cooks, add the w**e to your sauce and increase heat to a low boil.
7. Add the pasta to your pan, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook an extra 5-10 minutes. In the last two minutes, add as many clams as you can fit on top.
8. When it's ready, add the parsley and toss everything together (throw in some red pepper flakes here if you like a kick of heat). Finish with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve with plenty of crusty bread to soak up that sauce. The extra clams can be added to the sauce after the first plates are served or, if you need a little more time with your dish, set them out as an appetizer.
Open a new bottle of Sauvignon Blanc to pair with the meal. Delight in your guestsβ compliments.
