  • Soak clams in water for one hour with sea salt. Rinse well.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  • Sauté garlic over medium heat in a large skillet with olive oil. Add clams, bay leaf, and wine.
  • Cover and cook until clams open. Discard half of the shells. Pour cooking juice in a measuring cup and let it sit until the sediment falls to the bottom. Filter the juice through a cheese cloth.

  • Add leeks to skillet with clams and simmer one minute. Set aside.
  • Cook pasta two minutes less than the recommended cooking time. Drain, reserving 2 cups of the pasta cooking water.
