This recipe was passed down to me from a family friend. My husband doesn't normally like New England Clam Chowder - this is the only version he will eat. Ingredients:
4 (5 ounce) cans chopped clams |
5 lbs potatoes |
1 lb bacon, chopped |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1 gallon whole milk |
1 lb real butter |
fresh parsley, chopped |
paprika |
cornstarch |
Directions:
1. Drain juice from canned clams into large stock pot. 2. Peel potatoes and cut into bite-sized chunks. 3. Cook potatoes in clam juice (adding a little water to cover, if necessary). 4. Fry bacon just until done. Add to potatoes and clam juice. 5. Add clams, chopped onion, milk and chopped parsley. 6. Thicken with corstarch mixed with water. When thickened, add the real butter, paprika and more parsley for color and taste. 7. Cook until butter is blended. |
