    Crazy coincidence, I was just talking about how this local fish market near me let their chowder go downhill, and I needed to make my own.
    No better way than to learn from a New Englander.

    American Chop Suey, Apple Crisp, Pancakes with genuine New Hampshire Maple syrup, and some mulled apple cider for a drink!

    I made this last night for my son & myself and I must say, this recipe by GunBlue490 was the most *delectable* white clam chowder I’ve ever had in my life. My son, Jeremy, absolutely concurred! I did make a few small “tweaks” to my taste/liking like using Yukon Gold potatoes (due to availability) half of a 12 oz piece of salt pork (as opposed to 4 oz) using a *full* stick of butter, a *heaping* 1/3 cup of flour, an extra *2 bottles* of Bar Harbor clam juice, and finally 1/3 cup of *dry sherry* upon the last 10 minutes of simmering before serving. I will now be making this every time clam chowder is the fare of the evening. Thanks again, Sir and as always Thank You For Your Service! God Bless.

    Thank you Gunblue for this recipe. I remember growing up my grandpa made clam chowder once or twice every summer. I think he used whole milk in his but it was good. He also made his own egg nog. I managed to get his egg nog recipe from my grandma before she passed and it’s a cherished family secret- and yes it has 3 raw eggs in it and we don’t get sick from drinking it despite all the hoopla about consuming raw eggs. As for the Tabasco sauce, I’d expect no less from a Moxie drinker!
    Spring is among us and I look forward to your range videos. Take care from across the Kanc.

    After watching this, I immediately went on Amazon and ordered 4 bottles of Bar Harbor clam juice, since I’ve never seen it here on the West Coast. We have Snow’s clams, so that will be easy. We don’t have Maine potatoes, so I’m guessing Yukon gold will work since he said that the russets would disintegrate in the chowder. Can’t wait to make this clam chowder, thank you Sir!

    • @GunBlue490

    Thanks GunBlue for this clam chowder video. I've always been curious about a traditional recipe as made by a real New Englander. It looks delicious. I recognized right away the Bar Harbor brand juice and the Snow's canned clams. My local market carries Bar Harbor condensed chowder and also the Snow's clams. So I add 1 can of the clams to the condensed soup (not enough clams) and warm it up on my wood stove with some whole cream and and a dash of salt and pepper. It tastes great. The only thing missing is more potatoes. So I look forward to trying your recipe from scratch.
    I add a little cayenne pepper grounds from the garden to mine. Like you said not a lot just a bit.

    I enjoy eating clam chowder, either red or white. I'm surprised that no one has mentioned that the sequence in the video does not match the written recipe! I haven't made it yet as I just found your video today, but I will. I did tweak the recipe adding use of the food processor for chopping.
