Yes it lasted about 3 weeks and then I forgot that Wednesday was soup night. I did learn though that soup was on. At first I learned that Jeron actually liked more soups then he even knew he liked. Clam Chowder is one of them. This post is for Jeron. He thinks it is the best Clam Chowder he has ever had.
Clam Chowder and Breadstick
1 Cup Onion finely diced
1 Cup Celery finely diced
2 Cups Peeled Potatoes finely diced
2 Cans (6 1/2 ounce) minced or chopped clams
3/4 Cup butter
3/4 Cup Flour
1 quart half and half or milk
1 1/2 t. salt
1/2 t. pepper
Drain juice from clams and pour the juice over the vegetables in a small sauce pan. Add enough water to barely cover and simmer, covered over medium heat until barely tender. Meanwhile, melt butter and add flour and blend. Cook stirring constantly. Add cream and cook and stir with wire whisk until smooth and thick. (Very important). Add undrained vegetables and clams and heat through. Season to taste. Makes 8 servings. Enjoy!
