Episode 108: Cozy Carbs<\/a>
\nRecipe: Linguine with Clam Sauce and Vegetables<\/strong><\/p>\n

Clams are a favorite at our house, and I make this recipe at least once a week in the summer. I like cherrystones, which are larger than littlenecks and meatier. Bring them just to a simmer. <\/p>\n

\"Linguine<\/a><\/p>\n

Serves 4 as a main course, 8 as a first course<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 pound linguine<\/p>\n

SAUCE<\/strong>
\n2 tablespoons olive oil
\n1 tablespoon unsalted butter
\n2 medium onions, coarsely chopped (1 cup)
\n1 teaspoon fresh oregano leaves
\n4\u20136 large garlic cloves, sliced (1\/4 cup)
\n2 dozen cherrystone clams, shucked, cut in half with scissors, and kept in their juices
\n1\/2 cup dry white wine
\n1\/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper<\/p>\n

VEGETABLES<\/strong>
\n1 tablespoon peanut oil
\n1 tablespoon unsalted butter
\n8\u201310 asparagus spears, trimmed, peeled, and cut into 1-inch pieces (1 cup)
\n1 1\/4 cups chopped mushrooms (4 ounces)
\n2 medium zucchini, trimmed and cut into 1\/2-inch dice (1 1\/2 cups)
\n1\/4 teaspoon salt
\n1\/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
\n1 1\/4 cups seeded and diced (1\/2-inch) tomatoes
\nFreshly grated Parmesan cheese, for serving (optional)<\/p>\n

Bring 4 quarts of salted water to a boil in a large pot. Add the pasta, stir well, and cook until tender but still slightly al dente. <\/p>\n

MEANWHILE, FOR THE SAUCE:<\/strong> Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet until hot. Add the onions and saut\u00e9 for about 2 minutes. Add the oregano and garlic and cook for about 30 seconds. Add the juices from the clams and the wine, and boil gently for 7 to 8 minutes. Add the clams and pepper and bring to a simmer. Set aside.<\/p>\n

FOR THE VEGETABLES:<\/strong> When the pasta is cooked, drain it in a colander. Add the peanut oil and butter to the pot and heat until hot. Add the asparagus, mushrooms, and zucchini, season with the salt and pepper, and saut\u00e9 for about 2 minutes. Toss in the tomatoes and heat briefly to warm them.<\/p>\n

Divide the pasta among individual plates or transfer to a large serving platter. Spoon the hot clam sauce on top and arrange the vegetables on top of the pasta. Serve immediately, with Parmesan cheese, if desired.<\/p>\n
