About Plate vongole

Plate Vongole is a classic Italian dish showcasing the delicate flavors of fresh clams combined with pasta, typically spaghetti or linguine. Originating from coastal regions of Italy, this recipe highlights the natural sweetness of shellfish, enhanced with garlic, olive oil, white wine, and parsley. Lemon juice and chili flakes sometimes provide additional zest and heat. Its simplicity allows for a nutrient-rich meal, as clams are an excellent source of lean protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential minerals like iron and zinc. Olive oil adds heart-healthy fats, while parsley contributes antioxidants. However, it’s worth noting that the dish can be high in sodium, depending on the preparation, and may contain a moderate amount of calories due to the pasta. Pair it with a side of greens for balance, making Plate Vongole a wholesome choice rooted in Mediterranean tradition.
