Clams In Olive Oil With Jamon And Pine Nuts Recipes

LINGUINE WITH PANCETTA, OLIVE OIL, CHILE, CLAMS AND WHITE WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Cook your linguine in salted boiling water until al dente. Meanwhile, get a pan hot and add a couple of good lugs (tablespoons) of olive oil and the pancetta. Fry until golden, then add the garlic and chilies. Soften them slightly and add the clams. Stir, then add the white wine. Put a lid on the pan and cook for a further couple of minutes until all the clams have opened--discard any that remain closed. Remove from the heat and add the drained linguine. Stir in the parsley, correct the seasoning and serve with all the cooking juices.;

CLAMS KOKKINISTO

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, saute the onion, celery, and garlic in 2 tablespoons olive oil until tender. Stir in tomatoes, tomato paste, and clams. Season with bay leaves, chili pepper flakes, oregano, and salt and pepper to taste. Cover, and simmer for 1 hour, until tomatoes begin to turn deep red in colour and the sauce thickens. Stir in remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil near the end of the cooking time.

CLAMS WITH SHERRY AND OLIVES

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat, add the oil and garlic and cook, stirring, until the garlic is golden and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the piment d'Espelette and season with salt; cook for 10 seconds more, then stir in the clams, olives, wine, and sherry. Bring to a boil, then cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid, lower the heat to medium-low, and simmer until the clams open, 10 to 12 minutes. Uncover, remove and discard any clams that don't open, and add ¼ cup [10 g] of the parsley to the pot. Stir to combine and transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle with the remaining ¼ cup [10 g] of parsley. Serve with crusty bread.
