ROCKY POINT CLAM CHOWDER
This was a tradition in Rhode Island! When I was growing up there was an amusement park on the shore called "Rocky Point".

Steps:
- 1. In a large stockpot, heat the salt pork until fat melts.
- 2. Add chopped onions; Cook over gentle heat until very soft.
- 3. Add clam juice, potatoes, seasonings, tomato puree, and alittle water; simmer until the potatoes are soft.
- 4. Add quahogs/clams.
- 5. Heat and taste for seasoning.
- 6. TIP: It is best to use old, not new, potatoes because they thicken the chowder with their starch.
- 7. This is not a thick chowder, but can be thickened by crushing Pilot crackers and adding to the chowder near the end of cooking.
