Clam Chowder

Clam chowder is any of various chowders incorporating clams and stock. Along with the clams, potato clumps are popular, as are onions, which are now and then sautéed in the drippings from salt pork.   

Clam Chowder can be served up as a starter or as a meal, by itself. Clam chowder is a really flexible dish. There are a few soups that one would dream up serving on a baking hot summertime day other than Clam Chowder, though it's every bit appropriate for a substantial lunch on a wintertime day. 

Clam chowder is commonly served with saltine crackers or small, oyster crackers. Clam chowder can now be obtained in the soup aisles of just about every major food market these days.  

Clam chowders are now becoming accepted as a suitable substitute for fish chowders
