I'm not usually one for this style of clam chowder, but then I'd never made it in my own kitchen before, either! I did use a finely chopped red bell pepper here, but other than that, very definitely followed the recipe on down, & we had a very satisfying chowder, one that I'll be happy to make again, thanks to your recipe!
