When sautéing the base ingredients for any sauce, it is best to use grapeseed or canola oil, because of the higher smoke point. Make sure your skillet is very hot before adding vegetables and meat. Clams must be fresh and still alive, and they will quickly cook in their shells, in the sauté pan. Cook the linguini al dente, and top with the delicious sauce and fresh clams.
