LOL Now you went and did it. You've entered the arena of the great debate that has been going on between New Englanders and New Yorkers what seems like well forever.... Does true clam chowder contain tomatoes. New Yorkers say yes while New Englanders say No. LOL :)


My Grandmother McIntyre(BOSTON) ordered clam chowda in a Manhattan establishment years ago and got "Manhattan sytle" chowder. Being from New England (and one of the best cooks around) she promptly returned it to the chef and told him this was NOT chowda! I'm afraid unless it's thick and creamy....I have to side with Gramma! Maybe if you could say it's soup.........:D


Linda... I will have to make this for my son when he comes home from iraq.. he loves Clam Chowder.... not sure he would know the difference the ladies above are talking about... if he loves it out of a can he would surely love this....Thanks


I also prefer NE chowder but this is a great recipe will try it soon. ^5


Ah BEAN, only New York City people say Manhattan!!! the rest of New Yorkers are..well, it HAS to be New England Clam chowder. the other should have another name.. vegetable clam soup or Vegetable clam-ato soup..ummmmmmm the possibilities are endless LOL

PAT: I agree with Grandmother McIntyre!! Chowda has to be thick and creamy.


OMG... Your killing me here! Toooooooo funny!


Ok ok for CITY CHOWDER it rates a 5.. but it's still not CHOWDA..


Way to go!!! This is A-OK.


I grew up with my grand mothers New England style clam chowder.
I have made Rhode Island Red Clam Chowder it is similar to this.

Michael


I like both and this looks really good!


I'm a fan of both but I prefer the Manhatten, the other is just too heavy. Thanks for the post!
