Linguine alle Vongole
Linguine alle Vongole is a traditional Italian pasta dish that features linguine noodles and clams. Originating from the coastal regions of Italy, particularly Campania and Abruzzo, it highlights the fresh flavors of the sea. The dish is typically prepared with garlic, olive oil, white wine, and parsley, creating a light and aromatic sauce that complements the clams.
The clams used in this dish can be either vongole veraci (European clams) or littleneck clams, both of which add a briny taste. Linguine alle Vongole is often served as a main course and is popular in Italian restaurants worldwide, celebrated for its simplicity and deliciousness.
