Ingredients:
- 3 dozen chowder clams
- salt , to taste
- fresh ground black pepper , to taste
- tabasco sauce , to taste
- worcestershire sauce , to taste
Directions:
- Scrub the clams well under running water. Shuck the clams, reserving the juices. Cut the larger clams in half. Mix the reserved juices with enough bottled clam juice to equal 3 cups.
- Cook the bacon slowly in a soup pot over medium heat until lightly crisp, about 7 minutes.
- Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the flour and cook over low heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Whisk in the clam juice, bring to a simmer, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. The liquid should be the consistency of heavy cream. If it is too thick, add more clam juice to adjust the consistency.
- Add the potatoes and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the clams and cream in a saucepan and simmer together until the clams are cooked, 5 to 8 minutes.
- When the potatoes are tender, add the clams and cream to the soup base. Simmer for 5 minutes.
- Stir in the sherry. Season to taste with salt, pepper, Tabasco and Worcesteshire sauce. Serve in heated bowls with the crackers on the side.
