Main Ingredients:

About 15 to 20 sm. clams in the shell
or 2 cans (7 1/2 oz. each) minced
clams
Water
5 med. potatoes, diced
1 lg. onion, diced
2 slices bacon, diced
Clam liquid
1/4 c. butter or oleo
1 1/2 c. milk
Salt pepper to taste


Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

If fresh clams are used, scrub them well and place in a pan with about 1 cup of water in the bottom. Cover and bring to a simmer, steam about 5 minutes or until shells open and clams are just tender. Pull clams from shells, strain liquid through a fine mesh strainer lined with cloth and reserve. Cut clams into small pieces. Measure, you should have about 2 cups. If canned clams are used, drain them, reserving the liquid. Place the potatoes and onions and bacon in a saucepan and nearly cover them with clam liquid and water, cover and simmer until potatoes are just tender. Meanwhile, make a thick white sauce by melting the butter over low heat in a pan large enough to hold the chowder. Add flour and stir until bubbly and blended. Add milk and cook, stirring constantly until thick. Add the clams and potato mixture with its liquid to the sauce. Then to desired consistency, with water. Salt and pepper to taste. Heat, stirring, just to the boiling point before serving. Makes 6 to 8 servings.
