East Hampton Clam Chowder
RECIPE COURTESY OF INA GARTEN
Level: Easy
Total: 1 hr 5 min
Prep: 20 min
Cook: 45 min
Yield: 6 to 8 servings

Ingredients

12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, divided
2 cups chopped yellow onions (2 onions)
2 cups medium-diced celery (4 stalks)
2 cups medium-diced carrots (6 carrots)
4 cups peeled medium-diced boiling potatoes (8 potatoes)
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme leaves (1/2 teaspoon dried)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 quart (4 cups) clam juice
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
3 cups chopped fresh chowder clams (1 1/2 pounds shucked clams)

Directions

Melt 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) of the butter in a large heavy-bottomed stockpot. Add the onions and cook over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, or until translucent. Add the celery, carrots, potatoes, thyme, salt, and pepper and saute for 10 more minutes. Add the clam juice, bring to a boil, and simmer, uncovered, until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.

In a small pot, melt the remaining 8 tablespoons of butter and whisk in the flour. Cook over very low heat for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Whisk in a cup of the hot broth and then pour this mixture back into the cooked vegetables. Simmer for a few minutes until the broth is thickened.

Add the milk and clams and heat gently for a few minutes to cook the clams. Taste for salt and pepper. Serve hot.

    Oh my oh my oh my…the most simplest of recipes u can come across yet so delicious! Packed with flavor! Love how the video was straight to the point. My family enjoyed this recipe very much. Thank u Ina!

  4. SO S

    I made this tonight, turned out pretty good, I missed the bacon though:)

  6. EM Lodi

    I know she lives in East Hampton, but for those of us that don't where do we get fresh clams & fresh clam juice?

  7. Go Away

    Straight forward no nonsense instructions. Love how you don't waste time. Refreshing! Thank you!

    head to your nearest supermarket for fresh clam juice! It's always available! You never have to use the canned stuff.

    Made this tonight with fresh clams! One tip add the warm milk to the roux instead of the chowder water.

  20. Ray Hernon

    Thanks Ina, I'm 66 yr. old bachelor and have never made this, but you make it look so easy and chunky the way I like it! Soon in a bowl near me! Lol

  22. David Hovey

    Finally someone who knows how to make clam chowder. No canned clams!🤮. Thanks a bunch. From Rhode Island, so I’ve been making it this way for 40 years.😋

    I made this chowder and OMG!!! I never knew chowder could taste this good. I'm definitely going to make it again and again and again. This is my go to recipe from now on. Thank you!! 🤗❤

    Ina is always so confident and serene in her approach that she imparts those qualities to us… Plus, she really is the face of New England's amazing cuisine. Her recipes are consistently spot on as well.

  38. Antoneth De Guzman

    I kind of tried this version last night, but thyme and celery is not available so minus that. I'm sure it would have tasted better with those two. And, I didn't use too much butter, enemy of my PCOS. 😅

    Help? Either Ina or Guarnaschelli posted a Hampton's chowder with a segment of the show highlighting frozen and fresh chopped and whole clams that are available commercially – it appears – on L.I.. Ina tore open a container without showing the retailer/vendor name. I'm almost certain it may have been Alex that now removed the video and replaced with a Food Network version using fresh clams. Anyone?
