B C FERRIES MANHATTAN CLAM CHOWDER FOR FIRST CLASS PASSENGERS



B C Ferries Manhattan Clam Chowder for First Class Passengers image

In British Columbia, Canada, the Ferries that travel the beautiful trip between the Mainland and Vancouver Island, are famous for their "Manhattan" styled Clam Chowder. In the small village by Horseshoe Bay terminal, one of the little bistro's has it's own kicked up version. This is my copycat version of their version! NOTE - this is on the spicy/hot side so if you aren't a fan of that, don't add the red pepper flakes. Serve up with a crusty white artisan bread and a crisp, dry white wine. May I recommend BC's Sonoma Ranch Pinot Grigio. UPDATE: Sept 3, 2012 - Upped the flavour factor on this tasty soup last night by adding in a small chopped zucchini, a small finely chopped fennel bulb and instead of using tomato paste I added 2 TBSP of chipotle adobe sauce. If you don't like the spice of peppers you could add some liquid smoke or smoked paprika instead. Because of the added ingredients I added a bit more clamato and a bit more wine.

TRADITIONAL MANHATTAN CLAM CHOWDER (A.K.A. CONEY ISLAND OR FULTO



Traditional Manhattan Clam Chowder (A.k.a. Coney Island or Fulto image

I once found it hard to accept there was another form of clam chowder besides New England style, but I have to hand it to the ingenuity of the Manhattan chefs that came up with this style. The addition of tomatoes to this dish is thought to be inspired by the Italian and Portugese immigrants that made up the larger body of the city in the mid to late 1800's. In the late 1800's to 1930's this dish was referred to as Coney Island Clam Chowder or Fulton Market Clam Chowder. It was not until 1889 that Allesandro Filippini wrote his now famous cookbook called The Table: How to Buy Food, How to Cook It, and How to Serve It that the recipe was recorded for the non-professional home cook. Now we can not go on without mentioning the French influence on this dish since Allesandro was Delmonico Chef du Maison from from 1849 to 1863, and worked with another celebrated French chef, Charles Ranhofer. Charles was also a chef at Delmonico's restaurant in New York from 1862 to 1896 (34 years!). He also wrote restaurant quantity recipes in book form, but since this article is guaged for the home cook, we'll stick with the smaller version. It is with apprehension I write this recipe, as I do not want to disturb the spirits of such fine Chefs that have passed, and passed on their knowledge. It is with the upmost respect I offer my take on this fine creation of a dish, redolent with herbs and vegetables and let us not forget our favorite muddy mollusks, the clams.

CHEF JOHN'S MANHATTAN CLAM CHOWDER



Chef John's Manhattan Clam Chowder image

Manhattan clam chowder is usually very watery, too tomato-y, and not nearly clammy enough so I reworked the recipe into something significantly more rich, satisfying, and delicious. My secrets? A ton of clams, not too much tomato, and a little bit of flour to thicken things up. Serve with oyster crackers and garnish with fresh chives, parsley, tarragon, or even dill, if desired.

Provided by Chef John

Time 1h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 (10 ounce) cans whole baby clams, undrained
2 (6.5 ounce) cans chopped clams, undrained
4 strips thick-cut bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup diced yellow onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
kosher salt to taste
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup bottled clam juice
2 cups chicken broth
2 medium carrots, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
2 ribs celery, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
½ cup diced Italian tomatoes
freshly ground black pepper to taste
3 pinches cayenne pepper
3 cups peeled, diced Yukon Gold potatoes
2 teaspoons minced fresh tarragon
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Drain baby and chopped clams. Reserve liquid in the refrigerator until needed and set clams aside.
  • Place bacon in a soup pot over medium-high heat; cook and stir until well-browned and almost crispy, 7 to 10 minutes. Add onion, garlic, and a pinch of salt; cook and stir until onions start to soften and turn translucent, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add tomato paste; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Don't worry if some of the tomato paste sticks to the bottom of the pot; we want that to happen. Sprinkle in flour; cook and stir for 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Dump in reserved clam juice plus bottled clam juice and chicken broth. Stir with a spatula, scraping the bottom of the pot to deglaze any caramelization.
  • Add carrots, celery, clams, diced tomatoes, pepper, and cayenne; stir and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, skimming off some bacon fat if desired.
  • Add diced potatoes and cook until tender but not falling apart, about 20 minutes. Taste and adjust for salt, if needed. Stir in fresh tarragon and parsley just before serving.

MANHATTAN CLAM CHOWDER



Manhattan Clam Chowder image

You either like Manhattan clam chowder or you don't. James Beard famously called it "horrendous." But the chowder has its fans - the acidity of the tomatoes helps temper the salinity of the broth, and offers a pleasing sweetness besides. Green peppers and carrots add to the effect, and the garlic and red-pepper flakes speak to New York's immigrant past. It is certainly not a new development in the long history of clam chowder. Recipes for similar red-hued versions date back to the days of Delmonico's in the late 19th century.

Provided by Sam Sifton

Time 1h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

24 medium-size quahog clams, usually rated ''top neck'' or ''cherrystone,'' rinsed
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/4 pound slab bacon or salt pork, diced
1 large Spanish onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
2 large ribs celery, cleaned and diced
1 medium-size green pepper, diced
2 medium-size carrots, peeled and diced
Red-pepper flakes, to taste
3 large Yukon Gold potatoes, cubed
3 sprigs thyme
1 bay leaf
1 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes in juice, crushed or roughly diced
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/4 cup chopped parsley.

Steps:

  • Put the clams in a large, heavy Dutch oven, add about 4 cups water, then set over medium-high heat. Cover, and cook until clams have opened, approximately 10 to 15 minutes. (Clams that fail to open after 15 to 20 minutes should be discarded.) Strain clam broth through a sieve lined with cheesecloth or doubled-up paper towels, and set aside. Remove clams from shells, and set those aside as well.
  • Rinse out the pot, and return it to stove. Add butter, and turn heat to medium-low. Add bacon or salt pork, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fat has rendered and the pork has started to brown, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove pork from fat, and set aside.
  • Add onions, garlic, celery, green peppers and carrots to the fat, and cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are soft but not brown, approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in potatoes, and continue cooking until they have just started to soften, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Add 4 cups of clam broth, reserving the rest for another use. Add the sprigs of thyme and the bay leaf.
  • Partly cover the pot, and simmer gently until potatoes are tender, approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Using the back of a wooden spoon, smash a few potatoes against the side of the pot to release their starch and help thicken the broth.
  • Meanwhile, chop the clams into bits that are about the size of the bacon dice.
  • When potatoes are tender, stir in tomatoes, and heat them through. Add chopped clams and reserved bacon, stirring to combine. Add black pepper to taste. Let chowder come to a simmer, and remove from heat. Fish out the thyme and the bay leaf, and discard.
  • The chowder should be allowed to sit for a while to cure. Reheat it before serving, then garnish with chopped parsley. Serve with oyster crackers.

Tips:

  • Use fresh clams if possible. Fresh clams will give your chowder the best flavor. If you can't find fresh clams, frozen clams are a good substitute.
  • Don't overcook the clams. Overcooked clams will become tough and rubbery. Cook them just until they are opaque and tender.
  • Use a good quality clam juice. Clam juice is an important ingredient in clam chowder, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a clam juice that is clear and has a strong clam flavor.
  • Add vegetables to your chowder. Vegetables like potatoes, carrots, and celery add flavor and texture to clam chowder. You can also add other vegetables, such as corn, peas, or tomatoes.
  • Season your chowder to taste. Clam chowder should be seasoned with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or vinegar for a bit of acidity.
  • Serve your chowder hot. Clam chowder is best served hot, with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

Manhattan clam chowder is a delicious and hearty soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a comforting meal, give Manhattan clam chowder a try. You won't be disappointed!
