new england is the best and Josh is speaking the truth... :grinyes: :grinyes: :grinyes:
 
I was born in Chicago, but moved to New England when I was 3. I've been making CHOWDAH for the best part of 21 years. Clam Chowder is meant to be a filling, and rich experience. The cream and the dash of brandy that I add to mine enhances the natural richness and sweetness of clams that have been freshly dug (I make mine with Chatham Quahogs and Cherrystones, I can dig about 100 of them in an hour). All tomatoes do is add a nasty acidity that turns the clams into tasteless chewy bits of nothing. The stuff that comes out of New York is Tomato Clam soup. A chowder, by definition, MUST have a cream base.
