      If something tasted too salty my grandma would add raw potato chunks to absorb the salt. If the recipe called for potatoes, she would taste, and pull the chunks if still too salty and add new fresh potato chunks. If the recipe didn’t call for potatoes, they would just be discarded.

Was introduced (indoctrinated) to the no-cream version at Abbott's Lobster in the Rough in Noank, CT. Thanks for the recipe and your memories.
