Ingredients

5 tablespoons cubed salt pork or 2 slices bacon, chopped

1 large onion, chopped

1 rib celery, chopped

1 (8-ounce) can clam juice

5 potatoes, peeled and cubed

2 (6 1/2-ounce) cans minced clams or to taste

1/4 cup butter

Salt and white pepper

Directions

In Dutch oven, lightly brown salt pork with onion and celery. Drain. Add clam juice and potatoes. (Add more water or clam juice if needed to cover vegetables.) Cook until tender.

Just before serving, stir in clams and butter. Season with salt and white pepper to taste.

Variations: For Manhattan Clam Chowder, add 2 cups spaghetti sauce halfway through cooking. (You may also add just finely chopped stewed tomatoes, if desired.)

For New England Clam Chowder, add 2 cups half-and-half with the butter.
