For a richer flavor, consider using fresh clams instead of canned. Steam them open and use their broth for the sauce. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the end can brighten the dish. Don't overcook the garlic, as it can become bitter. If you don't have anchovies, a pinch of sea salt and a dash of Worcestershire sauce can be a substitute.
