  1. Made clam chowder tonight for the first time...thanks to everyone here
    who has ever posted about it! (I googled before making it.) It turned
    out really good; thick, but not "library paste" consistency.

    And since Dave didn't like it (he thinks of clams as "bait"😉, I've got
    left-overs! Yay!

    Oh, I can almost taste it! I love that stuff. 🙂

    Now, to hijack the thread slightly ...

    Does anyone have a recipe for the "other" kind of clam chowder? Tomato
    based? No potatoes? I don't remember what it's called, or I'd Google. I
    use canned clams.

    Thanks!

    I
    use canned clams.

    I have red that the so called " Manhattan clam" has milk inside; and the
    "new England" clam has tomatoes.
    Pay attention because I've red that clams are full of colestherol and poor
    of calories.
    We make the clam chowder with oil, garlic, wine , water, parseley and hot
    kili pepper. Under the chowder you can put some slices of toasted bred. Good
    and healthy.

    No, you have it backwards. New England clam chowder is milk-based.

    It is written on my vocabulary. Now I have read again: Manhattan with milk

    Whenever my friends and coworkers travel, they bring back cans of
    Manhattan clam chowder for me (either Campbell's or Progresso),
    because I love the stuff and I have not been able to find it in
    Indianapolis. And for what it's worth, it tastes great chilled!

    While I've had real New England clam chowder (the Black Pearl in
    Newport, RI comes to mind), I cannot tolerate that much lactose.
    Which is no problem with most commercial New England clam
    chowders, which usually contain no cream whatsoever.

    Barry, coincidentally this morning I am comparing a hand-written clam
    chowder recipe handed down in book form (probably early 1900's) to a
    hand-written post-card. My in-laws were mostly sailors on Branford Point,
    Connecticut, owning ships and being cooks at home and one owning a
    restaurant in the late 1850's to the early 1900's. The family always had
    seafood available. This one recipe calls for NO MILK, NO CREAM. (This is
    the way I prefer Clam Chowder myself.)

    Does that mean you have a really great recipe for same? 😉

    nb

    Here's one for you-
    This is a recipe for Manhattan style clam chowder from an old San
    Francisco restaurant, Collins and Wheeland, taken down in the 1930's.
    Unfortunately, there are very few measurements, but, I suspect that if
    you make a lot of clam chowder you can figure it out.

    "Clam Chowder a la Chef Anton (Kovacevich)

    salt pork
    1 tsps. curry powder
    thyme
    4 heaping tsps. flour
    1 cup tomato puree
    diced potatoes
    clam juice
    green onions
    bellpeppers
    mace
    marjoram
    salt and pepper
    1 cup solid pack tomatoes
    clams

    method:
    Dice salt pork and braise until golden brown. Add cut green onions,
    leeks, bell peppers, and braise. Stew the clams gently in water. Add
    curry powder to the pot in which pork is braising. Season with mace,
    thyme, marjoram and salt and pepper. When all has braised together,
    add the juice in which the clams were stewed, tomato puree solidpack
    tomatoes and diced potatoes. Lastly add the clams. Stew a moment all
    together and serve.

    Chef Anton gave a warning about the curry amount, and said that the
    amount given would do for four gallons for about four gallons of
    chowder."

    That's the way it's written down and the few measurements given don't
    make a lot of sense. But if you approach the recipe with a little
    common sense and some experience you can make a very tasty chowder with
    these ingredients.

    I have red that the so called " Manhattan clam" has milk inside; and the
    "new England" clam has tomatoes.

    No, you have it backwards. New England clam chowder is milk-based.
    Manhattan clam chowder has tomatoes.

    It is written on my vocabulary. Now I have read again: Manhattan with milk
    and new England with tomatoes.
    Perhaps the person who redacted didn't know !!!
    Sorry

    The word "tomato" does not belong in any thread about clam chowder. Or
    chili.

    Philistines!!


    How can you possibly have chili without tomatoes?
