New England Clam Chowder

New England Clam Chowder

Everyday

New England Clam Chowder is a creamy, dairy-based soup originating from the Northeastern United States, featuring tender clams, diced potatoes, and onions in a rich broth. Distinguished by its velvety texture and use of milk or cream, it contrasts with tomato-based Manhattan chowder varieties. This hearty soup provides substantial protein from clams but contains significant saturated fat and lactose, which may affect those with dietary restrictions. Traditional preparations often include sautéed salt pork or bacon for savory depth, and it's commonly served with oyster crackers for added texture.
