New England Clam Soup
Ingredients
  • 4 slices bacon, diced
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped onion
  • 4 cups peeled and cubed potatoes
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper to taste
  • 3 cups half-and-half
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 (10 ounce) cans minced clams
Instructions
1
Acquire all necessary components for the recipe.
2
Begin by placing diced bacon in a substantial cooking vessel over medium-high heat; allow it to cook and stir constantly until almost reaches its crispy state. Add diced onion to the pot; continue cooking and stirring until it becomes tender, approximately 5 minutes have passed.
3
Next, incorporate diced potatoes into the pot; add water and season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, then gradually decrease the heat to a low setting and let it simmer, uncovered, until the potatoes are tender, which should take around 15 minutes.

Subsequently, introduce half-and-half into the pot and add butter to enhance the flavor. Remove clams from their packaging, reserving any accompanying liquid; stir the clams and 1/2 of the reserved clam liquid into the soup. Continue cooking until the soup has reached a heated state, without boiling, approximately 5 minutes have passed.

Finally, present the prepared dish and indulge in its delightful flavors!
