Homemade Clam Chowder
from The Oprah Magazine Cookbook (2008)
serves 6
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 medium russet potatoes (about 1 lb.), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2/3 cup diced white onions
- 2/3 cup diced celery
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 (6 1/2 oz) cans chopped clams, juice and clams reserved separately
- 2 (8 oz.) bottles clam juice
- 1 oz piece salt pork
- 1 cup light cream
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
DIRECTIONS:
- Put the potatoes and enough water to cover in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook 10 minutes, until tender; then drain and set aside.
- In another large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and celery; saute until tender, about 4 minutes. Stir in the flour. Reduce heat to low and cook 10 minutes, until the flour is just golden; remove from heat.
- In the same pan used fro the potatoes, mix the clam juice from the drained clams, the bottled clam juice, and the salt pork and bring to a boil. SImmer the mixture 1 minute. Gradually whisk the hot clam juice into the flour-and-vegetable mixture until smooth. Return the pan to medium-high heat. Add the potatoes, cream, and salt; bring to a boil, stirring often. Stir in clams and just heat through, about 1 minute.
