Marijo's Clam Chowder
4 slices of bacon, fried crisp, crumbled and set aside
2- 8 oz cans of chopped clams and the juice
1 onion chopped and sauted
4 medium potatoes, scrubbed and diced
2 stalks of celery, diced
2 chicken bouillon cubes
1 C water
Dash of pepper , 1 tsp poultry seasoning or rosemary (optional)
Mix all of the above except the bacon, milk and clams (put the clam juice in but hold the clams) in a Dutch over (or large sauce pan with a lid) Cover and simmer until potatoes are cooked. Ass clams, milk and bacon and heat but do not boil. You may substitute cubed ham for the bacon.
If you like a thicker clam chowder, mix 1-2 tablespoon of corn starch with C water and stir in BEFORE adding the milk and clams to thicken the mixture bring to a boil stirring constantly. Then add the milk, clams and bacon or ham to finish. Serve with a tossed salad and sour dough bread for a great meal.
