How to make it

  • In a heavy stock pot, over medium-high heat, render the bacon, until crispy, about 8 minutes. Stir in the leeks, onions, celery, and carrots. Saute for about 2 minutes or until the vegetables start to wilt.
  • Season the vegetables with salt and pepper. Add the bay leaves and thyme. Stir in the flour and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Add the potatoes. Stir in the clam juice. Bring the liquid up to a boil and reduce to a simmer.
  • Simmer the mixture until the potatoes are fork tender, about 12 minutes.
  • Add the heavy cream and bring up to simmer.
  • Add the clams and simmer for 2 minutes. Stir in the parsley. Season with salt and pepper if needed.
  • Ladle soup into shallow bowls and serve.

    This recipe is true Emeril Lagasse—loaded with bacon! I’m not sure why the description says it’s not thickened with flour when it calls for 1/2 cup. It makes it a thick, hearty clam chowder, but doesn’t have a strong clam flavor. See more in IMI II Reviews.
