| 1. In a heavy 10-12 inch skillet, heat the olive oil until a light haze forms over it. Stir in the garlic and cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, for about 30 seconds. | 2. Pour in the clam broth and wine and boil briskly over high heat until the foam disappears and the liquid has reduced to about 3/4 cup. Remove from heat and set aside. | 3. In a large kettle or soup pot bring the water and salt to a bubbling boil over high heat. | 4. Drop in the spaghetti and stir it gently with a wooden fork or spoon for a few moments to prevent the strands from sticking to one another or the bottom of the pot. | 5. Boil over high heat, for 7-12 minutes, or until the pasta is tender. | 6. Test it by tasting a strand; it should be soft but al dente-that is, slightly resistant to the bite. Immediately drain the spaghetti into a large colander, lifting the strands with a fork to be sure it is thoroughly drained. | 7. Transfer the spaghetti to a large heated serving bowl and toss it with the soft butter. Bring the sauce in the skillet to a boil over high heat and add the clams. | 8. Cook the clams, turning them constantly, for 1 or 2 minutes. Then pour the clams and sauce over the spaghetti, sprinkle with parsley, and toss together with two large forks until all the ingredients are well mixed. | 9. Taste and season with salt and white pepper. Serve at once. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
