California Farm Saffron Clam Chowder

Our fishmonger has chopped clams this week. Time for our annual clam chowder feast, and freezing some more pounds to make summer chowders. I posted family recipes for mild winter clam chowder and spicy summer clam chowder last year. This easy chowder recipe is more festive, with saffron and rice instead of potatoes. A special clam dinner feast under an hour. It is one of my favorites.

California Farm Summer Clam Chowder-Spicy California Farm Summer Clam Chowder-Spicy
The trick to stay cool outdoors in summer, when working, is to eat spicy foods that make you perspire, which cools you down, and take in liquids. Working sunrise till noon, then sitting down for a long summer farm luncheon break, then back to work. Hot, spicy, creamy, filling chowders work well for this. Here is my spicy summer creamed clam chowder, different from winter soups. Serve cold water, fresh bread, ripe fruits and cold salad with this chowder. Hobby Horseman -

Quick Clam Chowder Quick Clam Chowder
I live in the New England area and there are many delicious chowder restaurants. I tried to make this chowder taste closest to the restaurant that makes me think, "This place is delicious." I can make this dish quickly whenever I want with canned clams, so it is very easy and economical.You can taste the strong flavor of wine, so if you do not like wine, use less of it. Usually there are no carrots in New England Clam Chowder, but I used them since I prefer the taste. The soup will be delicious if you add other vegetables you like such as corn. If you have leftovers, you can toss with pasta for a delicious pasta dish. Recipe by Chikichikichiki-ta cookpad.japan -

Oyster Clam Chowder Oyster Clam Chowder
I made this clam chowder with lots of oysters and veggies. If you add some short pasta, this soup will become even more filling.This soup will be amazing even without the white wine! You can also substitute the water with milk. The key is to cook the vegetables well in Step 2. They will be cooked in Step 3 as well, but it's important to add the oysters after they become soft.
