one way to go.......

 

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 cup onion, finely diced

6 canned anchovy fillets, drained, minced

5-6 large garlic cloves, minced

1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper

2 14 1/2-ounce cans Italian-style diced tomatoes

4 6 1/2-ounce cans chopped clams (strain and save 1/2 juice)

1 cup dry red wine

3 tablespoons tomato paste

1 pound linguine, freshly cooked

Chopped fresh parsley

Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

 

 

heat oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. add onion and sauté 3 minutes (sweat them). add anchovies, garlic and dried red pepper; sauté 2 minutes. mix in tomatoes with juices, clam juice, wine and tomato paste. bring sauce to boil. Reduce about 20-25%. add clams reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.

 

Add linguine to sauce and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to large bowl. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve with Parmesan cheese, if desired.

 

edit: can also add a little chopped thyme and bay leaves

Outstanding, I merged Bier's and one Momma PD ran over as they were similar(recipe). The good thing was ( and I know we've all been there before) it absolutlely hit the spot. #1 it's what I was craving and #2 I wanted to whip it together myself.......needless to say, it will be done again.

 

I despise anchovies, so I omitted them, as when I taste a dish with anchovies.....it's all I taste.....NASTY(one man's opinion)

awesome!

 

i am not a fan of anchovies either, but there are a few recipes that they can work for me.

 

key to this one is reducing that sauce or it can get "soupy."

 

great with garlic bread.

Can we get a poll going on white vs. red clam sauce? I find in red clam sauce, the clams get overpowered by the tomato flavor. White is all about the clam juice being the base of the flavor.

 

PS - and anchovie pizza (although an aquired taste, I'll admit) r00ls!

I like both, but was in the mood for red....sometimes it's white.
