Reviewer: Anonymous from Philadelphia, PA
this was a very good, rich soup. My only comment is that it needs potatoes. NE clam chowder always needs potatoes. Add 3 peeled redskin or other favorite potatoes to the recipe, cubing them and cooking in the broth. Makes the recipe look better and taste better as well.
