This is one of my favorite pasta dishes. It’s only got a few ingredients but it packs a lot of flavor (if done correctly) and is great for summer entertaining.

If they are slightly open but close quickly when you tap them then they are still alive and they’re good to go! If they are open and don’t shut, discard them. When you buy the clams, your fish monger should check this for you…
