What better way to warm up on a cold night than with a cozy bowl of soup? To keep you warm during chilly weather (or anytime you’re craving it), let us introduce one of our favorites: Manhattan Clam Chowder. This warming, classic soup is packed full of sweet, briny clams, bright tomatoes and white wine for a one-pot favorite you’ll be cooking up all year long.
Dairy-based New England Clam Chowder has been an American favorite for centuries, but the so-called Manhattan version first appeared at New York’s Delmonico’s in the 1800s. If you’re accustomed to New England Chowder, this dish may surprise you: Manhattan Clam Chowder has a tomato base instead of cream, giving it a more savory, tangy flavor. Add in the meaty clams, their sweet juice and plenty of hearty potatoes, and you’ve got a filling and flavorful chowder — Manhattan-style.
Whether you’re looking for a new soup recipe, a favorite comfort food or an easy dinner recipe, whip up a pot of our best Manhattan Clam Chowder for an unforgettable, satisfying dish that’ll bring to mind seaside memories. Plus, this recipe only takes a half hour, making it a quick but rewarding weeknight meal. So get out that Dutch oven — chowder’s on the menu tonight!
P.S. Don’t forget to pair it with some crusty sourdough bread for a match made in heaven!
