Quick Clam Chowder
From Cook's Country
We wanted our Quick Clam Chowder recipe to feature a rich smokiness, so we cooked the ingredients in rendered bacon fat. We opted for using all cream for the dairy component of our Quick Clam Chowder recipe, but found that it can be replaced or cut with whole milk for a lighter—but still tasty—version.
