I boil my potatoes slightly in another pot with just enough water to cover.
Cook bacon until transparent in a soup pot.
Add onions, celery.
Cook until tender.
Add flour and cook for another 5-6 minutes over low heat (making a roux).
Add all the canned milk and clam juice slowly, mixing as you go.
Add thyme.
Heat just under boiling point.
Add chopped clams, potatoes and butter (don’t need to strain potatoes).
Bring to a boil slowly without boiling and cook for 2 – 3 minutes.
Then let simmer on low for 1/2 hour stirring a few times.
Add parsley.
* serve with some french bread!
* to keep clams tender make sure you put them in when recipe says.
* this is a very inexpensive recipe, dig your own clams, grow your own herbs, onions, celery and potatoes! Of course if you have milk cows, use them!
* recipe can be easily doubled for a crowd
