New England Clam Chowder

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Bring 1 cup of wine and 1 cup of water to a boil in a large pot. Add clams, cover, and cook for five minutes.
- 2
Lift lid and stir clams, making sure water is still boiling. Cover and cook 5 to 10 minutes longer.
- 3
Stain broth through cheesecloth in a metal sieve. Repeat until all sand is removed (I strained mine twice). Add water to broth so that there is 6 cups of liquid. Set aside for now.
- 4
Remove clams from broth and set aside. Discard any that did not open.
- 5
In large pot, cook bacon until crispy. Drain all but two tablespoons of grease.
- 6
Add butter, onions, leeks, and celery to pot. Cook until onions and celery are translucent, being careful not to brown.
- 7
Add garlic and potatoes and mix well with veggies. Add broth and bring to a boil.
- 8
Simmer contents until potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Mash some of the potatoes against the side of the pot for a thicker consistency of broth.
- 9
Add heavy cream and chopped clams to pot, mix well, cover and remove from heat.
- 10
Set aside for an hour or so, this will allow flavors to fuse. Add salt and pepper for more flavor, if necessary.
- 11
Serve with a pat of butter and chopped parsley. Enjoy!

Clam chowder is one of my favorites and is easy to make at home! The consistency of this recipe is a slightly thickened broth, which I prefer to the very thick chowders. NCCook -

New England Clam Chowder Stuck in the Midwest New England Clam Chowder Stuck in the Midwest
I'm half "New Englander", on my dad's side, and as such I LOVE a good clam chowder, but alas I am stuck in the Midwest and there isn't a good, fresh clam in sight.And CANNED clam chowder? Please don't get me started on that abomination! 😂A good clam chowder should be thick, and creamy. And if there isn't at least a little clam in nearly every bite it ain't worth it.Now, nothing beats a chowder with fresh clams, but if you're like me and stuck where truly fresh seafood is a rarity (or outrageously expensive) you'll appreciate the flavors of this chowder. Better yet, you'll truly appreciate what little effort it takes to prepare! StephieCanCook -

We'll be traveling around the world together through kitchen runway soon.Fresh clams with a chewy texture make the soup sweeter. This recipe is made without a cream soup base, starting with a roux from scratch. We don't like overly thick, heavy cream soups, so we use fresh milk instead. If you prefer it thicker, add more flour. If you want it richer, you can use cream instead of milk. Choose spices you like or use what you have at home. Matt MattTranslated from Cookpad Thailand -
