CONTEST-WINNING NEW ENGLAND CLAM CHOWDER
This is the best New England clam chowder recipe, ever! In the Pacific Northwest, we dig our own razor clams and I grind them for the chowder. Since these aren't readily available, the canned clams are perfectly acceptable. -Sandy Larson, Port Angeles, Washington

CONTEST-WINNING NEW ENGLAND CLAM CHOWDER
This is terrific. I added some extra bacon and left the skin on my red-skinned potatoes. I also skipped the clam juice because I didn't have any, and I used evaporated milk in place of half and half. Recipe courtesy of Taste of Home.
