Number Of Ingredients 12

4 dozen Manila or littleneck clams (about 2 pounds), scrubbed
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 shallots, thinly sliced
1 stalk celery, thinly sliced
2 Yukon Gold or russet potatoes
2 cups fresh corn kernels (about 3 ears), plus scrapings from cobs
1 sprig thyme
1 fresh bay leaf
1 cup heavy cream
Freshly ground pepper
Grilled Striped Bass

Steps:

  • Place clams and wine in a large saucepan. Cover; cook over medium heat until clams open, 6 to 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer clams to a bowl (discard any that don't open). Strain liquid into a small bowl, leaving grit and sand behind; set aside.
  • Rinse saucepan, and melt butter over medium heat. Add shallots and celery; cook until they begin to soften, about 4 minutes. Cut potatoes into 3/4-inch chunks; add to pan along with corn kernels and scrapings, thyme, and bay leaf. Add reserved cooking liquid and cream, and stir to combine. Cover; reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until potatoes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Arrange clams on top; cover, and continue cooking just until heated through, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; season with pepper. Spoon sauce into four shallow bowls, and serve fish on top. Arrange clams around fish, and serve immediately.

Overall, I thought this sauce was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably wouldn't make it again.

This sauce has potential, but it needs some tweaking. I would add more corn and clams, and maybe some chopped celery and onion. It also needs a bit more seasoning.

I followed the recipe exactly and the sauce turned out bland and watery. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This sauce was a bit too thick for my taste. I had to add some milk to thin it out. Other than that, it was pretty good.

I'm not usually a fan of chowder, but this sauce changed my mind. It's so creamy and flavorful, and the corn and clams add a nice touch of sweetness and brininess. I'll definitely be making this again.

Easy to make and delicious. I added a bit of extra garlic and cayenne pepper to give it a little kick. Served it with crusty bread for dipping and it was the perfect meal for a cold night.

This corn and clam chowder sauce was an absolute delight! The flavors of the corn, clams, and bacon blended perfectly, creating a rich and creamy sauce that was both hearty and comforting. I served it over linguine and it was a hit with my family. Wi
