About Spaghetti with clams and mussels

Spaghetti with Clams and Mussels is a classic dish rooted in Italian coastal cuisine, celebrated for its simplicity and fresh flavors. This seafood pasta combines al dente spaghetti with a delicate sauce made from olive oil, garlic, white wine, and parsley, perfectly complementing the natural sweetness of tender clams and mussels. Rich in lean protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential minerals like iron and zinc, the shellfish contributes to its nutritional value. Olive oil adds healthy monounsaturated fats, while parsley provides vitamins and antioxidants. The dish is relatively low in saturated fats but may include excess sodium if pre-seasoned shellfish or added salt is used. Traditionally light and wholesome, it’s an elegant, nutrient-rich option for seafood lovers seeking Mediterranean-inspired nourishment.
