Razor Clam Chowder.
It's not as good as Merinos in Westport, but I keep trying to get close....
Bring water to a boil. Cook 4 Yukon gold or new potatoes in 4 cups salted water. (1/4 inch dice cook 8 min or until done to your liking). Set aside in separate bowl.
Heat 2 tbs bacon fat and saute 1 diced onion and 2 diced stalks celery for 2 min. Add 2 tsp fresh thyme and 1 cup dry white wine and cook until all the wine is evaporated. Add 4 tbs bacon fat (and or butter) until melted then add 1/4 cup flour and whisk. Then add 4 (total) cups milk (or half and half)/clam juice. Simmer 3 min to thicken. Add potatoes and one can cream of celery and clams, simmer and cook for 3 min. Garnish with chives.
