Great recipe! Used 3 cans of minced clams and not the full pd. of spaghetti. Like to have more meat in a pasta dish. Very tasty! Thanks for the recipe!

Recipe is very tasty; I made some changes/additions. Cut down oil to 1/3 cup ( using half roasted garlic infused oil and half olive oil), used two cans minced clams with all of it's juice, plus 1 can (14 oz.) artichoke bottoms, which I drained and diced), added 1 small chopped shallot, 1/2 tsp. crused red pepper, a little more of the parsley, oregano and basil, salt, put in a splash of white wine and a splash of lemon juice. Make sure you whisk all the ingredients thoroughly before ladling on top of preferred pasta. Deliciious! My husband said he would not order pasta with white clam sauce at a restaurant, but if he knew it would taste like this did, he definitely would--he loved it.

Fine recipe as-is if you are one of those folks that like this style of clam sauce; I prefer a much thicker sauce, so I simmered it for some time with a bit of white wine and all of the clam juice and reduced the sauce to nearly to a marinara consistency. Tasted excellent at this point, then I decided to great creative and added the clams, PLUS 1/2 tsp. or so of bittersweet Spanish paprika (avail. Amazon) which turned it into a red sauce (!) AND pushed the flavor WAAAY over the top. Served over linguine, and sauce was thick enough that none of it dripped through to hit the plate. Will need to do this a lot more often.

delicious! made with whole wheat linguini, one can of clams (used most of the juice), and supplemented the other can of clams with chopped mushrooms and half of a white onion. definitely agree on adding the crushed red pepper. didn't have any basil on hand and was still great. also, put water in it to make more dipping sauce and stretch it further. my boyfriend finished two helpings before i'd even finished my first. definitely a keeper!

I was looking for a white clam sauce to make. This one looked easy, and I had all the ingredients already. It was rated high by a good number of people too. Well it was quick, simple, and excellent. It's a keeper!
