Originally all chowders were just milk and cream based and somewhere along the line we thought it would be trendy to thicken them…..to each his own but I prefer the old Yankees style
I have witnessed this change.

Woodman's in Essex MA has been a family favorite since I was a kid.

Their clam chowder was semi clear decades ago.

It had large clam parts in it and it tasted wonderful to me.

Now Woodman's and so many others serve something akin to Snow's canned chowder.
