I made this last night and it's even better today. IDK there's something about sitting in the fridge overnight that makes some stuff taste better. Although, the next time instead of using salt I will use my Morton's seasoning blend. I tried it with it today and it really complements it.
Former restaurant cook here: all soups but especially chowder improve with what we called 'curing'. We would make 5 gallons batches a few times a week, never for service until the next day. One way to get this on demand is to make your chowder base (sauted veggies, potatoes and clam juice) ahead of time, even freeze it, thaw and add it to the cream base and heat the clams through. Assemble in the morning and serve for dinner.
I will never stop
Coming back to this video for as long as I can’t remember how to make the cream 😂 love your recipe !
This is Easter Sunday 2021. I just made this for our dinner today and it was absolutely DELICIOUS! I had never made clam chowder before and this was an easy base recipe. Like all cooks, you tweak it to make it your own. My spouse loved it so much, as did I. I will be making it again. Thank you so much for a delicious meal. xo
Thanks for your question! You can certainly add broccoli florets at the end of preparing this clam chowder. Enjoy!
I'd drop the carrots, sauté the onions and celery, and add chopped parsley at the end. I'd also add a half tea-spoon of old bay.
Yeah, use a Trinity not a Mirepoix
What's Old bay??
@Victoria Bueno yea but what is it made up of?
@Victoria Bueno that sounds good
Don’t forgot a couple punches of white pepper
I have made this several times for my family and they just love it. There are never any leftovers, I make cheddar bae biscuts to go with it also. Just a wonderful dinner.
I'm a pregnant woman craving clam chowder and this looks absolutely delicious!! :)
How’s your 7 year old kid?
I just made this! I cooked bacon and sauted the veggies in the fat. I was worried I didn't cook the flour long enough cause it had a bad taste but once everything was put together, salted and peppered, it tasted GOOD!!!
I can’t wait to make clam chowder 🎉
The video should say this, I have heard it is a good idea to cook the rue alittle to get rid of the floury taste of the flour. My Mom taught me to do that when I made rue. Not too much, because it will start to become
brown.
I made this recipe with fresh clams... it was SO delicious. I also added bacon and fresh corn kernels to my soup. Thanks for a great recipe
It was OUTSTANDING...the Best Chowdah that I've ever put in my mouth!!!
It really helps when someone posts a video of making food, but this one was by far the BEST! Super informative and helpful! I just watched the video so I’m going to try to make it tomorrow! Thanks you so much for the video!🎉👍
Excellent, friends and family loved it. I tweaked the recipe a bit since i was cooking for a crowd on a cold blustery day. I had to promise to make it again. I honestly had to triple the recipe. Excellent stuff.
I just made this and it came out fantastic. So simple and easy.
it looks like a great recipe im going to try it, thank you for sharing it with us.
Just made a pot of this clam chowder cuz I was craving some and im eating it right now, I think it tastes good!
Mary
that is the most important part of this. If you are happy with what you made, you have succeeded.
Damn I added to much butter and boiled down the broth so the flavor came out more like cheap clam chowder
Yum! Great suggestions :)
I Tried this recipe, and it turned out perfect!!!! 👌 thanks so much I love your channel!
I just made some clam chowdah following this recipe. It tastes awesome!!!!
Oh man!!!
Delicious delicious delicious.
I've been wanting for a long time to make homemade clam chowder and then come across this one and this is the one I made and is it delicious delicious delicious first time ever making it and I am very happy and satisfied. No need to look elsewhere. 😁
I add red homemade wine instead of wine vinegar and it comes out delicious,thank you.
What's wrong with using canned clams? I'm not sure how fresh people expect their food to be, appreciate the convenience that we have people, I feel like people will soon expect you to churn your own butter. Kudos to those that can make it all fresh but honestly ain't nobody got time for that while working full time.
Get a wife that wants to be a homemaker. Your food will be much better.
Fresh or canned, honestly it taste the same with all the cream and flour and butter xoxo
@@HeatherValentineMsFoodie After testing samples of canned clams from China, FDA determined that the food poses a public health concern due to the detected levels of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), which is a type of PFAS associated with several serious health outcomes, including developmental effects, changes to liver function, reduced immune response, and increases in certain types of cancer. FDA states that it is working to determine the extent of PFOA in imported canned clams, as well as PFAS in other clam products, and that the agency will be taking action to ensure the safety of the U.S. food supply this is a 2022 article
Fr canned clams are bomb!!!!! Ofc unless your willing to go out into the ocean to hunt down your own lmao
"churn your own butter" welcome to india we do that here
This is a good recipe I made it last night. I had to add more cream because it was too thick so adjust according to thickness you prefer. I cooked 4 pieces of bacon and cooked my veggies in the grease and then added the clam juice like the video says. Also crumbled bacon in chowder. As far as the red wine vinegar I didn’t notice the flavor in the chowder so it’s hard to tell if it made a difference. I would use this again.
Looks appetizing! Great job.
Totally made this tonight except I did modify it alittle. My bf and I had two bowls before we called it a night. Good recipe, thank you. Not bad for my very first homemade chowder thanks to you!
Wow que rico 😃delicioso se ve👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 muchas gracias 👏👏👏 por compartir receta deliciosa🌹🌹🌹
I love ❤️ clam chowder it is my favorite soup 🥣 dish ever!
It looks really good and I like your method of cooking it.
I had the best clam chowder while on Cape Cod, since then I could never find clam chowder that even came close. After years and years of trying to find chowder everywhere that I had an opportunity and I could never find one that was "Cape Cod" good until now. The wife and I use this recipe to create the most wonderful clam Chowder i've had in decades. We absolutely love this recipe and it's really easy to make. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!.
I make this all the time for my husband and as picky as he can be, he LOVES this recipe. I do season the veggies through out the whole cooking process and add corn but everything else is the same and I love it. THANKS FOR SHARING THIS RECIPE! 😃
Well. I have made this twice, and it was just great. The second time I added old bay and corn and bacon.The red wine vinegar does a good job. The carrots are an odd change but nice
I saute the trinity, de-glaze with sherry. I add some thyme, white pepper instead of black pepper. The vinegar was interesting. But I added homemade raisin vinegar instead of wine vinegar. Thanks for the vinegar tip.
I've made this twice so far because of this video and it was amazing both times! The red wine vinegar really does add flavor to it.
I skip the red wine vinegar, I’m afraid it’ll taste sour. What exactly does it do to the taste?
IDK
Don't skip on the wine, its vital
Personally I prefer white wine but to each their own
You did it! Congratulations!!! World's best Clam Chowder. Great job everybody!
Just made this recipe today but added bacon and it was amazing! Thank you!
You are welcome! Please let us know how you liked the recipe.
Thank you for this recipe! I made it tonight & it came out perfectly delicious even without the
Red Wine Vinegar. Your recipe was very easy to follow. Excellent! Thank you again.
Sincerely, Nurse BJ 🌸🥰💉
This looks so good. I'm going to give this a try when I get back home next week.
😊
Did you ever get home and make it?
I like clam chowder with fresh clams, but this looks very good too.
Yum! The only thing I would do differently (just because it's me) is to fry up about 3 strips worth of cut-up bacon. I would then sautee the onions and celery with the bacon and some olive oil. Carrots; why not? The red wine vinegar touch sounds delightful. I didn't experience clam chowder until I went to college and it was served occasionally in the dorm cafeteria. Loved it! Stayed in Seattle for 5 days on business a number of years ago, and the hotel I stayed in had great clam chowder in their restaurant. I had a bowl of chowder with breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Did I mention I love clam chowder? Will give this recipe a try. Thanks for the video!
To each their own. I grew up in NE and the only only thing we used bacon for was breakfast and bacon-based dishes. We sauteed any chowder veggies in butter and clam juice.
Thank you so much for this video, it worked perfectly!! I made this the day after Christmas & oh my god it came out amazing!! :-) The. Best. Clam. Chowder. EVER!!! Love this recipe & vid, very informative & easy to follow. I was able to have enough for 4 servings. And all the ingredients that come together is very tasty/yummy. A million thumbs up!! ;-)
tanks for the recipe - love memories of San Francisco...
What a great recipe.👍
Just made it....my son Loooooooved it❤😋
Sounds good. Think I will do for Christmas. Only difference is I will not use viniger and sautee garlic in butter then add the Trinity and a good splash of Chardonnay! Merry Christmas all!
Delicious clam chowder! Perfect recipe...

Hello suzy. Remember when you posted this comment 7 years ago?
@@ArcadianWizard lol
Thank you sharing 😋 Now it’s time for me to make my own😊
Good luck!
This looks like another winner! I cant wait to try it . I had no idea about the red wine vinegar, what does it do for the soup ?
Wow that looks great 💗
I am making 10 gallons of this tomorrow, this recipe looks great!!
wow thank you so good
looks good to me thanks
You could certainly use the clam juice in this recipe, you will most likely want to taste so you can avoid over-salting. Enjoy :)
Muchas gracias
This looks so good!
I'm going to make this on Thanksgiving. :D
Thankyou!
That gives me an idea to make clam chowder on Thanksgiving! Thanks for the idea!

Great recipe. Like homemade
I am a pregnant man and craving this right now
I think you meant to write “you’re” and I’m male. It’s a joke based off of multiple comments of hungry pregnant women.
Don't fret , gave me a big smile. Some folk still have a sense of humor!
Lol!!!! How far are you Man!!!
Me to I’m 13 months pregnant:)
This is new england clam chowder not bayside California
awesome clam chowder
So, gravy with veggies and clams... i'm down!
Can't wait to try it! TODAY! Will report back if I use this recipe. Thanx for sharing!
This is my first choice recipe for clam chowder!!!
This clam chowder is the bomb!
Looks so yummy .. can we use any kinds of clams ?
Loooks sooooooo good 😊
I'm a Bahstonian myself and completely agree!
Delicious. Can you buy tinned clams in the UK?
what temperature do i heat this soup to, to put into a thermos?
Best ever!!
I have made this several times. I love it , although I don’t use the red wine vinegar.❤️
Same, but I’m curious to know of the taste it provides but kind of skeptical it might make the soup sour.
I live in New England and had about a million cups of clam chowder in my life.Don't recall ever seeing carrots. But I won't knock it till I try it.
It's delicious make it! And some garlic and creole..
[thank, you for you're video and and you're time spent.] 🇺🇸
This recipe was amazingly simple and delicious. I added bacon and Thyme
Looks delicious 😋
Thank you!
Just wanted you to know I used this recipe and it came out so delicious! 😋
The best 😋
We're doing this!
I don’t have canned clams where I live. What is a good substitution for the clam juice?
I made it just like the video Shows and it was really good Thanks
Hi Jorge, thanks for your feedback! Glad you enjoyed this recipe :)
i made this recipe but didnt add red wine or carrots. i added basil and tyme and my boyfriend and his mom loved it!
This looks amazing. Question for anyone is this canned clams gritty??
good stuff
"Why strain clams from juice?" Well, it's certainly up to the cook but for a more traditional taste and consistency I think it matters a lot. If there is a lower quality & watery canned clam liquid added to the chowder at the end it'll make it too soupy requiring more tasteless raw flour, more seasonings and/or additional cooking time to thicken it back up which makes the clams rubbery. Adding the strained canned clam liquid at the start allows it to mingle better with the other flavors.
thank you
yum, looks great! i like mine with some sourdough bread for dipping :D
Same
I made this, & as usual my family loved it but asked “Who did you get to come over & cook this?"
Every time I cook something really delicious they think someone else cooked it 😞
I added mussels and crab plus bacon and mushrooms because I had them pretty good
yummmmm!!!!!
Worked at a popular seafood restaurant in Florida and we used canned clams.
At 1:59 for those who are wondering, that is basic béchamel sauce
I add mussels..delicious
Just made this today! Damn!! is all I gotta say. Best clam chowder recipe I’ve tried yet
Please don’t swear online. Thank you.
Yummy 🤤
