Clam Chowder is a thickened creamy seafood soup composed of minced clams and chopped potatoes. This Easy Clam Chowder Recipe will yield a rich tasting thick soup that you will surely enjoy.

Easy Clam Chowder

In making Clam Chowder, you can use either fresh clams or canned minced clams (packaged in 6.5 ounce cans). This Easy Clam Chowder Recipe suggest the use of canned minced clams because of availability reasons. As for the cream, I like to use half and half with some flour as the thickening agent.

However, feel free to use fresh milk or all-purpose cream if you desire. The secret of this Easy Clam Chowder Recipe lies in the clam juice. The juice adds flavor to the soup making it more pleasing to the palate. Clam juice can be purchased in your local super market; it is usually found in the isle where canned fish and seafood are located.

Try this Clam Chowder Recipe and let me know what you think.
