Rocky Point Clam Chowder image

This was a tradition in Rhode Island! When I was growing up there was an amusement park on the shore called "Rocky Point".

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 lb salt pork, chopped into small pieces
1 onion, chopped
1 gal clam juice
1 lb potatoes, diced
1 Tbsp paprika
2 c canned tomato puree
1 1/2 qt chopped quahogs or clams
water as needed
salt & pepper to taste
dash of old bay seasoning
pilot/oyster crackers

Steps:

  • 1. In a large stockpot, heat the salt pork until fat melts.
  • 2. Add chopped onions; Cook over gentle heat until very soft.
  • 3. Add clam juice, potatoes, seasonings, tomato puree, and alittle water; simmer until the potatoes are soft.
  • 4. Add quahogs/clams.
  • 5. Heat and taste for seasoning.
  • 6. TIP: It is best to use old, not new, potatoes because they thicken the chowder with their starch.
  • 7. This is not a thick chowder, but can be thickened by crushing Pilot crackers and adding to the chowder near the end of cooking.

Not bad! I thought the chowder was a little bland, but my husband really enjoyed it. I think next time I'll add some more salt and pepper.

This chowder is a true delight! The clams were tender and flavorful, and the broth was rich and creamy. I especially loved the addition of bacon, which gave the chowder a nice smoky flavor.
