Pasta With Sake Clam Sauce

Recipe Ingredients

2		Chopped clams
3/4 cup	46g / 1.6oz	Finely chopped onion
2		Garlic cloves - minced/pressed
1 cup	237ml	Sake or dry vermouth
2 tablespoons	30ml	Canned capers - drained
10 oz	284g	Dried linguine or vermicelli
1/4 cup	36g / 1.3oz	Finely chopped parsley
1/4 cup	36g / 1.3oz	Fresh grated parmesan cheese
1/8 teaspoon	0.6ml	Crushed dried hot red chiles

Recipe Instructions

1. Drain clams and reserve juice. In a 10-12" frying pan, combine 1/2 cup of the clam juice, onion, garlic, and 1/4 cup sake. Stir on high heat until about 1/4 of the liquid remains. Add remaining sake, clams, and capers; simmer 3-4 minutes. Keep warm.

2. Meanwhile, bring 4 quarts water to a boil in a 6-8 quart pan on high heat. Add pasta; cook, uncovered, until tender to bite, about 8 minutes. Drain pasta and pour into a wide bowl; add clam mixture. Lift and mix with 2 forks until most of the liquid is absorbed, about 1 minute. Top pasta with parsley, cheese, and chilies.
