MAINE CLAM CHOWDER
Maine Clam Chowder is made from soft shell clams that are native to Maine. They are very sweet, if you could call a clam that. When you add milk, cream, onions, and potatoes, you have a wonderful "chowdah".

Steps:
- Fry the diced salt pork--"porkies" (or bacon) in a pan till done; drain and set aside.
- Heat the clam juice in a large saucepan on medium heat.
- In separate pan put the butter and onions and sauté till translucent.
- Add the flour and whisk continuously for 5 minutes.
- Add to the clam juice slowly whisking all the while so there will be no lumps.
- Add the clams and stir; add potato chunks, milk, cream, salt, and pepper.
- Decrease heat and simmer for about 20 minutes stirring frequently to avoid burning.
- When you serve, put the "porkies" (fried salt pork) or bacon on the table to put in the individual bowls.
- Make this a day ahead for flavor.
- NOTE: If fresh clams are not available, substitute a 6 ounce can of clams including the juice.
