This makes a fantastic soup, almost a stew .... guess that's why its called a chowder. It has such a depth of flavor, I will absolutely make this again.

Watching him make the soup on tv, he added thyme and bay leaves to the broth in the beginning, so thatAs what I did. Also, I only used a few shakes of red pepper flakes, (1 tbsp must be a misprint. I used canned, San Marzano tomatoes, not fresh. And, I lucked into an excellent chorizo.

Enjoy!

The following review was from 2 years ago. Just realized it was unposted as I came to post again. I made it again tonight - this time with conch and shrimp and a few other variations.

I used Tyler's recipe as the foundation of my most recent Manhattan clam chowder attempt. It turned out as my effort to date. Absolutely delicious. But I altered the recipe considerably.

Lime instead of lemon
No butter... sauteed the veggies in the bacon fat
No chorizo - Italian sausage instead (and included with the bacon in step 1
red onion instead of yellow
no sugar
no red pepper flakes (feeding my 4-year-old
50 littlenecks ... not 24.
Added a bottle of clam juice.
Added a can of fish stock.

I have never produced anything less than spectacular food when I start with Tyler's recipes/guidance.

If you use a tbs of red pepper flakes in this it will blow your head off, so while I like hot dishes this one is totally over the top!

So you liked the soup, but it's not "Manhattan Clam Chowwder" and you threw it out? Why would you waste all that time and ingredients? What a waste! I don't know, or care, if the recipe is "authentic" - I simply know that it is good, and flavorful, and nourishing. I do not throw out perfectly good food. Oh, and by the way? This is a fantastic recipe, and I have prepared it many times.

I tried this without salk, and with low sodium ingredients. It was still wonderful!

I made this soup the other night and it did taste good but it's definitely not Manhatten Clam Chowder. I followed the recipe carefully, omitting only the chorizo since my husband and I were observing Lent. I did use the bacon to saute the vegetables in but I did not add the bacon to the chowder.
We liked the taste but it certainly did not taste like Manhatten Clam Chowder. It was way too smoky tasting. If you want a rich tomatoey clam chowder skip this one. We were very disappointed and threw this recipe out. It also did not call for potatoes which I found odd. What's a clam chowder without potatoes?

So good! Definitely cut pepper flakes if you aren't a fan of spicy food.
