My New England Clam Chowder Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • In large pot use 1 T butter and saute salt pork for five minutes
  • Add onion, celery w/leaves and garlic until translucent and celery is soft.
  • In a separate pan, boil clams in salted water for ten minutes. Do not overcook, as they will become chewy.
  • Reserve one cup of broth
  • Parboil the potatoes in the broth (add water iff necessary) Cook al dente
  • When done, add potatoes to the pot and cook for another minute or two with the other vegatables.
  • Add remaining butter and cook all until its melted and then add the flour to make a roux.
  • Once the flour has mixed and been cooked with the butter add the cream and all dry ingredients.
  • Add 1/3 cup clam broth (from boiled clams)...add more or less depending on how thick you like your chowder
  • Add clams to the chowder and cook on low for fifteen more minutes.
  • Add pepper to taste, and/or a dash of tabasco sauce
