I serve this cheesy chowder every Christmas or New Year's. Throughout the year, I substitute the potatoes and clams with broccoli and find that even the grandchildren enjoy the taste. -Joy Schuster Glentana, Montana

I've tried many clam chowder recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The secret is in the roux. It gives the chowder a rich, velvety texture that is simply irresistible.
