Linguine with Clams and Porcini Mushrooms

 
   
   
   
Ingredients -  
   

1 ounce Dried Porcini Mushrooms
1/4 cup Olive Oil
10 cloves Garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Dried Red Pepper Flakes
36 fresh Clams, cleaned
2 cups Dry White Wine
4 Tomatoes, cubed
3 8 ounce jars Clam Juice
1 1/2 cups chopped Fresh Parsley
1 16 ounce package Linguine Pasta

 
   
Preparation:  
   

Soak mushrooms 20 to 30 minutes in cold water to rehydrate. Dry, and coarsely chop. Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in mushrooms, garlic, and red pepper. Cook until browned. Stir in clams and white wine. As clams open, remove to a medium bowl, discarding those that remain closed. Mix tomatoes, clam juice, and parsley into the mushroom mixture. Simmer until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add linguine, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain. Return clams to the broth mixture and cook until heated through. Thoroughly mix in cooked linguine just before serving. Serves 6.
