I have a chicken corn chowder recipe around here somewhere that's pretty tasty.

That potato/corn chowder sounds good Jim.

I think that in order to be authentic, it needs to be "chowdah".

Love me some clam chowdah.
Lots of good NE style out there but also really enjoy the Manhattan style. Just don’t see it much.

Don't forget Rhode Island Style. If you like clams it has best most "clammy" flavor. Done well it's my favorite.

Matunuck Clear Broth Clam Chowder

Ingredients
8 pounds small quahogs or large cherrystone clams
7 cups water
6 cups clam broth (from steaming) or 4 cups clam broth plus 2 cups bottled clam juice
3 slices thick-sliced bacon, cut into ¼-inch cubes
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium-size onions, cut into ¼-inch cubes
3 ribs celery, cut into ¼-inch cubes
2 bay leaves
2 pounds Yukon Gold or other all-purpose potatoes, peeled and cut into ½-inch pieces
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
1 teaspoon minced fresh dill
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
Scrub the clams and rinse them clean.

Add 7 cups of water to a large stockpot fitted with a steamer basket or colander, and bring to a boil.

Add half the clams to the basket and cover. Steam until the clams open, 5 to 10 minutes. (Discard any clams that don’t open.)

Repeat with the second batch of clams. Reserve 6 cups of the broth. Set aside.

Cool the clams; remove the meat from the shells and dice it into ½-inch pieces. Keep them covered and refrigerated until ready to use.

Put the bacon in a 5- to 7-quart pot over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 10 minutes.

Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the bacon fat, leaving the bacon in the pot. Reduce the heat to medium-low.

Add the butter, onions, celery, and bay leaves, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened but not browned, 6 to 8 minutes.

Add the potatoes and reserved clam broth to the pot. Continue cooking over medium heat until the chowder begins to simmer. If it begins to boil, reduce the heat slightly. Cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.

Just before serving, remove the pot from the heat, stir in the clams and herbs, discard the bay leaves, and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve hot.

Note: Steaming the clams might seem laborious, but it’s actually easy and makes a briny broth. Aim to extract 6 cups of broth from the clams; if not, you’ll need to have some bottled clam juice on hand to round it out.

I thought it was a chowder, but La Wife-a says its not.


I asked her to get the recipe out so I could post it and it is confusing as hell. She said she would have to make the soup tomorrow so it will all come back to her.

Good deal for me!

Its called Cream Cheese Potato Soup.

If you are interested, we will have a recipe posted tomorrow.

Seafood Corn Chowder. My favorite. I usually use shrimp, scallops, some white meat fish. But , the beauty is that you can tweek it to your taste. Crabs, clams, lobster, oysters, mussels are great pick and choose substitutes.

I originally had this chowder at Turtle Kraals in Key West many years ago. Loved it and after several iterations of mimmicking, finally got it pretty close. If I were doing the same now, I would have probably just started from scratch and had the desired result a lot faster.

I love fresh seafood and envy you guys on the east/west coast's access to it.

Not enough to put up with the people and politics mind you but still jealous.
