Spaghetti with clams

Today's recipe is a must eat good Italian, in my country there are various versions. This does not have the tomato among the ingredients. His name ....spaghetti with clams.With a light touch of spicy whets the appetite, logical that if the spaghetti with clams are intended for our childrens we will not add the red pepper.

Ingredients for 4 people: 12 oz spaghetti, 1 lb 2 oz clams, 1 clove garlic, minced, 10 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, 1 bunch of fresh parsley, minced, hot pepper according to your taste, salt, 6 tablespoons white wine. Preparation: Take a large bowl and fill it with cold water with plenty of salt, stir to dissolve the salt. Now let's take a pasta colander and immerse in salt water. Pour into a pasta colander our he lives clams. Cover the clams with a lid and leave them for at least an hour. Only by doing so will lose the annoying sand. Of course, before you cook the clams need to rinse. Take a large skillet and pour: The extra virgin olive oil, chopped garlic, hot pepper into small pieces and half the chopped fresh parsley. Cook over low heat until golden ingredients. Be careful not to burn everything. Pour the clams are still alive and cover the pan with a lid. When the shells of clams are all open add the white wine. Continue cooking over low heat for at least 15 minutes. This time without a lid. At the end of the cooking time must remain a sauce. At this stage we do not add the salt. Now cook the pasta in plenty of boiling salted water. Remember that the pasta should be drained still "al dente". Pour the spaghetti into the pan, stir and serve in 4 hot dishes and garnish with more chopped fresh parsley. Look at the picture of the post for an idea. Wash it all down with a good wine cold sparkling white or rosé. I wait for the next post and sorry for my english.
