  1. Saute shallots in olive oil and butter...(maybe a tablespoon or two of each. I like to be generous with the butter!)
  2. Add minced garlic and saute another minute or two until fragrant, but not browned.
  3. Add canned clams, wine and fresh clams and cover for a few minutes to steam the clams. 5 minutes or so or until clams open. Discard any un-opened clams.
  4. Toss clams with pasta and fresh parsley.
