Delaware Clam Chowder

This clam chowder is a traditional dish hailing from Delaware. The dish is usually made with a combination of pre-fried salt pork, potatoes, quahog clams, butter, onions, and salt water. The ingredients are cooked until soft, and the chowder is then served while still warm. This clam chowder variety was especially popular during the early and mid-20th century. It's often compared with the New England clam chowder, with which it shares some common traits. Sometimes, white wine, cream, and corn are added to Delaware clam chowder, giving the broth a slightly yellowish hue.
