Manhattan clam chowder

[Brett-EDH]

Been in the mood for an OG Manhattan Clam Chowder so I whipped this up and took it up two levels by adding scallops and shrimps to the soup.

Reminds me of cool fall days in Freeport, NY. Many fond memories of a time that’s since passed.







I made it from memory and taste profile. Nailed it.

looks good.

I grew up with new-england clam chowder, but that looks really tasty.

That’s not Manhattan Clam Chowder, that’s EDH Clam Chowder.

Looks very tasty

Big NE Chowder fan here but that definitely sounds and looks great!

out of my own curiosity, have you ever heard of an tried Manhattan clam chowder? The NE version is what 99% of restaurants serve, except those places in NY/NYC proper.

we grew up on the Manhattan style and have come to enjoy NE style, especially in a sourdough bowl (Boudin in SF).

That’s not Manhattan Clam Chowder, that’s EDH Clam Chowder.

Looks very tasty

it's basically clams, crushed tomatoes and chicken stock. some version use white wine. if anyone's interested, I can build and post the recipe.

it's hearty and not heavy like the cream version can be. i had two jumbo bowls of it last night.

I recall having it once at a restaurant when I was a kid and everyone was surprised when it arrived since we were accustomed to new england style chowder.

I don't' remember much more as this was probably 50 years ago.

I think I've had Manhattan clam chowder in a restaurant a few times in my life. I know I like it, but don't see it too often on a menu. I also know for sure I've had Campbell's. I love making my own soup so I will give this a try soon.
