Or to be more precise, spaghetti alla vongole — a favorite in the Italian province of Campania. This pasta with shellfish is traditionally prepared in two ways: white and red. White wine, good olive oil, garlic, some fresh herbs — and the vongole will show themselves in all their glory. If you need to add brightness to the dish, that is, make it red — tomatoes and fresh basil will do the trick. Both options are equally good, it is impossible to say which pasta is better. The peculiarity of preparing this dish is that live shellfish in shells open during cooking. There is only one rule: the smaller the shells, the tastier and more aromatic. But the larger they are, the less hassle and more meat. As pasta, you can take not only spaghetti, but also linguine, vermicelli.
