Valentine’s Day Linguine With Clams is a timeless Italian seafood pasta that feels effortlessly romantic yet surprisingly simple to prepare. Known in Italy as Linguine alle Vongole, this dish combines briny fresh clams with garlic, olive oil, and white wine to create a light yet flavourful sauce that coats each strand of linguine beautifully.
