About Creamy clam chowder

Creamy Clam Chowder is a rich and hearty soup with roots in New England cuisine, beloved for its comforting and velvety texture. This classic dish is made with clams, tender diced potatoes, onions, and celery, all simmered in a creamy broth of milk or heavy cream, often enhanced with butter and seasoned with thyme, bay leaves, and a hint of salt. While it is a source of protein and essential minerals like iron and zinc from the clams, its creamy base contributes to a high fat and calorie content, making moderation key. Pair it with a light salad or whole-grain bread to balance its indulgence. Often garnished with crisp oyster crackers or fresh parsley, creamy clam chowder is a timeless and flavorful choice for those seeking a taste of coastal comfort food.
