Provided by KimberleyH

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 carrot, diced
1 medium onion, diced
1 potato, diced
1 stalk of celery, diced
1/2 pound minced bacon
1 stick of butter
3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
1/2 quart (2 cups) clam juice
1 1/2 cups flour
2 cups milk
2 cups cream
2 cups half-and-half
1/2 teaspoons black pepper
1 pound chopped clams (fresh, frozen, or canned)
1/2 teaspoon clam base (optional)

Steps:

  • Place vegetables, bacon and butter in a 5 qt sauce pot. Saute over medium heat until vegetables are tender. Be careful not to brown or scorch. When vegetables are tender, add flour to make a roux. Cook for two minutes, allowing flour to cook while stirring occasionally. Add clam juice and dairy products. Stir by using a wire whisk. Add fresh garlic, black pepper, chopped clams and clam base. Cook over low-medium heat stirring occasionally to prevent chowder from scorching. Cook for two hours or until chowder is brought to desired thickness. Notes: Use a crockpot if available. Also, clam juice can be added to thin chowder down if it gets too thick.

Overall, I had a bad experience with this clam chowder. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

The service at this restaurant was terrible. We waited over an hour for our food, and the chowder was cold when it finally arrived.

This chowder is way too expensive for what you get. I could make a better chowder at home for half the price.

The clams were a bit overcooked. I think I'll cook them for less time next time.

The chowder was too thick for my liking. I think I'll add some more milk next time.

This chowder is a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more salt and pepper next time.

I love the addition of bacon in this recipe. It adds a smoky flavor that really takes the chowder to the next level.
