Is anything more warm and comforting than a bowl of Jacques Pépin's famous New England clam chowder? This classic recipe uses a medley of bacon, baby clams, leek, potatoes, corn, and, of course, heavy cream. At one point in his career, Jacques would make a version of this that would feed hundreds of people while working at Howard Johnson's, but for this recipe, you can comfortably feed a family of 4 - 6 😋.

What you'll need:
2 slices bacon, olive oil, 1leek, 1 clove garlic, fresh thyme, jalapeno, 2 cups clam juice, 1 cup water, 1/2 lb potatoes, salt, pepper, 2 tbsp flour, 1 ear corn, 2 10oz cans of baby clams, 1/2 cup heavy cream, chives.
