Emeril's Linguine With Red Clam Sauce
"A present from Emeril.
Don't forget to scrub the clam shells. Throw away clams that won't close."
- Ready In:
- 40mins
- Ingredients:
- 13
- Serves:
-
4-6
ingredients
- 2 tablespoons salt
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 lb linguine
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup small-diced onion
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 1⁄4 cup tomato paste
- 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 4 lbs littleneck clams, scrubbed clean and picked over
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
- 1⁄4 cup extra virgin olive oil
directions
- Set a large 1-gallon pot of water with a pasta insert over high heat. Bring to a boil and add 2 tablespoons salt.
- Add the uncooked pasta to the water and cook for 7 minutes. (The pasta should be undercooked.) Drain the pasta in a colander and reserve.
- Begin making the sauce while the pasta is cooking. Set a large 14-inch saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil to the pan and once hot, add the onions and saute until lightly caramelized and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and crushed red pepper flakes, and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add the wine and tomato paste, stir to combine well, and cook until the wine has nearly completely evaporated, about 3 minutes.
- Add the diced tomatoes, remaining teaspoon of salt, and the par-cooked pasta to the pan, toss to combine, and bring the sauce to a boil.
- Add the clams to the pan and cover. Continue to cook until the shells open, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the parsley and toss to combine. Drizzle the extra-virgin olive oil over the pasta and toss to combine.
- Serve while hot.

<br>Updated January, 2008. I worked for the Navy for 38 years prior to my present job as a research engineer with Penn State University. I'm originally from Long Island. I met my wife, Grace Mastellone, when I was 16 and she was 13. We've been married since 1963 and we've been living in Pennsylvania since 1974. We have two married sons and 5 grand children. We enjoy eating out at Italian restaurants as well as Applebees.</td></tr></table>

<br>Not all carbohydrate foods are created equal, in fact they behave quite differently in our bodies. The glycemic index or GI describes this difference by ranking carbohydrates according to their effect on our blood glucose levels. Choosing low GI carbs - the ones that produce only small fluctuations in our blood glucose and insulin levels - is the secret to long-term health reducing your risk of heart disease and diabetes and is the key to sustainable weight loss. This <a href=http://www.glycemicindex.com/>free GI database</a> can be used to find the GI value of your favorite carbohydrate foods that have been tested over the past 25 years from all around the world. You can also check the glycemic load (GL) and grams of carbohydrate per serving.

<br>I have a collection of several Italian cookbooks and I enjoy cooking with my wife. In the past five years we've visited Italy 4 times and each time I come back several pounds heavier.
<br>
<br> The thing that bothers me most are nuisance telephone calls, especially at dinner time.
