Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound plum tomatoes
3 dozen littleneck clams, scrubbed well
1/4 cup water
1/2 pound linguine
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped

Steps:

  • In a saucepan of boiling water blanch tomatoes, 2 or 3 at a time, 10 seconds and transfer to a bowl of ice and cold water. Peel, seed, and dice tomatoes.
  • In a large heavy kettle steam clams in water, covered, over moderately high heat 5 to 10 minutes, checking after 5 minutes and transferring them as they open to a bowl. (Discard any clams that are unopened after 10 minutes.) Remove kettle from heat, reserving liquid.
  • In a 6-quart kettle bring 4 quarts salted water to a boil and cook linguine until al dente. Drain linguine in a colander.
  • While linguine is cooking, with a small knife remove meat from the largest 24 clams, discarding shells, and in a food processor pulse just until chopped coarse. Into reserved clam liquid stir chopped clams, tomatoes, garlic, oil, and red pepper flakes and simmer 2 minutes. Add linguine, basil, remaining 12 clams in their shells, and any liquid in bowl and toss well with salt and pepper to taste.
