Rhode Island Clam Chowder, by SAM SIFTON.
"Clear clam chowder originated along the southern coast of Rhode Island, where it is a local delicacy much to be preferred over the creamier version of Boston to the north and the (to them) criminally tomato-hued style served in Manhattan to the south and west. Eating it recalls the feeling of pulling into Block Island after a long day at sea, scented with salt spray, and sliding into a clean bunk to sleep."
Ingredients
  • 24 medium-size quahog clams, usually rated ‘‘top neck’’ or ‘‘cherrystone,’’ rinsed
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • ¼ pound slab bacon or salt pork, diced
  • 1 large Spanish onion, diced
  • 2 large ribs celery, cleaned and diced
  • 12 red bliss potatoes, cubed
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • 3 sprigs thyme
  • 1 bay leaf
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup chopped parsley.
