Clam Chowder
Does anyone have a really really thick clam chowder recipe? I know I can search online, but figured I'd ask all you fine folk here. Can you image, I live in New England but never made it?! Thanks! ...

(note: RI style clam cakes are nothing like Maine style clam cakes) It was actually fairly good even though a true Rhode Islander doesn't consider "red chowder" to be a "real" clam chowda. It was sort of a local joke that red chowder was against the law.
.... I read somewhere that there was (maybe still is) a law in Rhode Island that actually makes Manhattan (red) chowder illegal!
