Super tasty! That long simmering really lets the great flavor develop. Just by smelling it, you can almost taste it. I like that it's pretty low in fat, too. I easily halved the recipe and used 1 quart of chopped clams from the seafood department. I added the clams closer to the end of simmering. This is a keeper. Thanx for posting Tom's recipe for us! :)
