Add clams and increase heat to medium-high; cover pot. Cook, shaking pot occasionally, until clams have opened, 5-8 minutes (discard any that do not open).

Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta cooking liquid.

Add pasta and 1/2 cup pasta cooking liquid to clams and toss to coat. Cook, tossing and adding more cooking liquid as needed, until sauce coats pasta, about 2 minutes; season with salt and pepper.

Serve linguine and clams topped with reserved almond-herb mixture.
