January 21st, 2025 is New England Clam Chowder Day

New England Clam Chowder Day

What most in Middle America think of when they think of clam chowder is the New England variety: clams, milk or cream, potatoes, bacon, and onions. This is in contrast to Manhattan chowder, which is a red, tomato-based clam soup. CDK has recipes for both. But we would encourage you to warm your belly the Boston way today, New England Clam Chowder Day!
