  • 1 1/2 pounds chopped Clams with their Liquid

  • Salt and freshly ground Black Pepper to taste
  • 3/4 pound Potatoes peeled, cut in eights lengthwise and sliced

  • 3 tablespoons Flour mixed with 3 tablespoons Cold Water to thicken soup

Instructions

  • Place a large kettle, pot or dutch oven over low heat.
  • Add salt pork. Brown salt pork, stirring, until golden, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove pork to a plate. Set aside briefly.
  • Pour grease into a heat-proof measuring cup. Pour 2 tablespoons back into kettle. Discard the excess or keep for another use.
  • Put cooked salt pork back in kettle.
  • Add onions, carrots and celery. Increase heat to medium low and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and become fragrant, about 10 minutes.
  • Add garlic. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes longer.
  • Drain clams, reserving their liquid. Set clams aside.
  • Place clam juice in a large bowl or pitcher. Add bottled clam juice and the liquid from the canned tomatoes.
  • Measure clam/tomato liquid. Add enough cold water, if needed, to make a total of 7 cups.
  • Add this liquid and the tomatoes to the vegetables. Stir to break up the tomatoes.
  • Stir in the tomato paste, ketchup, Kitchen Bouquet and a pinch of salt and pepper. Simmer, uncovered, for 45 minutes.
  • Add potatoes. Simmer, uncovered, until the potatoes are tender, about 25 minutes longer.
  • Add reserved chopped clams and the green pepper to the soup. Simmer 5 minutes longer. Stir the flour and cold water mixture into the simmering soup. Simmer 2 minutes longer.
  • Taste. Adjust salt and pepper, if needed.
  • Serve hot.
