Someone asked me the easiest way to make clam chowder.
So I tried coming up with the simplest selection of ingredients and made a delicious dish out of them.

There's no need to de-sand the clams if you use canned ones.
Stock up on canned or bagged mushrooms - they might come in handy.
If you're using fresh mushrooms instead, make sure to sauté with the vegetables.
When using soup stock granules, add 2 teaspoons. Please adjust the amount of salt to your liking. For 4 servings. Recipe by Yukijirushi
