  1. My mom is from New England so yum. I make my clam chowder with leeks, no celery 3 cans of clams, and evaporated milk that I add at the end. Love it so much

  2. I’m making it right now😊 I was going to use an online recipe tonight and your video popped up lol..synchronicity ❤ I can’t wait to try it with my hubby❤ thank you!

  3. Bruv, that looks gawd dayum ah-mazing!

    I've always wanted to sub the clams for crab, because while clams are ok, I'm just not as thrilled by them as I am crab.

  4. I just turned 70, and I've been making clam chowder for decades. That being said, I'm always looking for a better recipe. I believe I've found it! This is a lot like the one I make now, but this will be the one I make next time. I have an entire notebook in my recipe cupboard of your recipes. Yes, I have an entire cupboard–three shelves–of recipe books and recipes. I have to say that the notebook I'm in the process of compiling of your recipes is the most used! Thanks for amazing and practical everyday content!! And my partner, Larry, has loved every single one of the recipes of yours that I have made, and he's picky!

  5. Had, a Navyblue Toyota, & a White Chevy, & a Darkgreen Toyota? A new form of Transportation, maybe 2 more, too?; Honeymoon vacation?; Somebody?

  6. New England clam chowder used to be my favorite Chunky brand canned soup until they changed the recipe. This looks quite good!

  7. John is SERIOUS about his clam chowder. He IS a chowda head! How 'bout some conch chowder with the red. I hear they are using ketchup. Is that so? See you in Nassau JK.

  8. Here on the north shore of MA, we add a few slices of butter, some coarse freshly-ground black pepper, and some oyster crackers to our chowder.

    I wonder about using fish stock instead of chicken stock. My palate leans towards cayenne rather than jalapeno as well.

    This recipe looks awesome, I'll try it.

  9. This looks so yummy and comforting! I've made your easy corn chowder a gazillion times so I know that this one will be a winner too! Thank you!!

  10. Sorry, I grew up near San Francisco and you lost me at the chicken stock… should be clam and clam-juice only for its base. Furthermore, tomatoes and its juice need not apply, and jalapeno are just NO! Maybe this is how you nor'easters do it, but it doesn't work for a 'frisco sourdough bowl of chowder.

  11. I hate saying this because I love your recipes. Your clam chowder is off!! West coast here, and I have won contests with my chowder. I add 2 cans of clams and a can of bottled clam juice, with my bacon celery, onions etc.boil my potatoes in my juice then add heavy cream when potatoes are just about done little butter and crushed saltiness( if I want my chowder thicker) Never bay leaf. I also do leeks at times. I always add a little hot sauce. I am also picky about the brand of my clams. Again I really enjoy your recipes!! So Please don't take it wrong!! I have made chowder since I was 8 or 9 years old living a mile from the Ocean all my 60 years, it's second nature.

  12. Are there any adequate substitutes for someone with a seafood allergy? Would it work with chicken, or chickpeas, or anything else in place of the clams?

  13. Hi John,
    This is my sort of food yummy I am going to make it ( at least try ) this weekend thanks again for your time and recipes I have never made this before but looking forward to it 😋😍 have a great weekend ❤️🍷

  14. Hi John! I’m from Massachusetts and this is my favorite soup/chowder in the whole world! Thanks for the tutorial…✌️

  15. So weird I made this last night but I didn't even notice you uploaded this 😂 must have had the same craving. Mine didn't have celery though. I'm in Vermont and I'm a French Canadian from Ontario lol. Tonight I'm making hamburger gravy over mash with corn

  16. Thank you for your videos and recipes. I love clam chowder and my recipe is almost identical to yours, except I use more bacon (and therefore no butter), but I don't use a bay leaf. It seems everyone puts bay leaves in soups. Why is that? What do they add? (Although I've been cooking for 60 years, I'm really a novice when it comes to spices other than salt, pepper, and garlic. )

  17. That is a beautiful kitchen! Is it a studio for your videos or your every day kitchen? I personally have learned so much from your videos! Thanks so much ❤
