Tips:
- Choose the right clams. Fresh clams are best, but canned clams can also be used. If using canned clams, be sure to rinse them well before using.
- Use a good quality clam juice. The clam juice is the base of the chowder, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for clam juice that is clear and has a briny flavor.
- Don't overcook the clams. Clams are delicate and can easily become tough if overcooked. Cook them just until they are opaque and tender.
- Use a variety of vegetables. Vegetables add flavor and texture to the chowder. Common vegetables used in Manhattan clam chowder include potatoes, celery, carrots, and onions.
- Season the chowder to taste. Salt and pepper are the basic seasonings for Manhattan clam chowder, but you can also add other spices, such as thyme, bay leaf, or paprika.
