If you re a fan of New England clam chowder, and you like linguini with clam sauce, you are going to absolutely love this Clam Chowder Shell Pasta! That s right, I think we ve invented a new category of recipe called, Soupastas. CCR: I came up with this around 1995 when I was fishing on a pier by a seafood restaurant where I always got a bowl of clam chowder after a long cold day of fishing. I also had a tiny camping stove and a package of Kraft Mac&Cheese with me (the OG kind with bright orange powder) but dropped the sauce powder packet off the pier so I just added the cooked macaroni to my clam chowder and it was pretty good! I've been doing that ever since with penne pasta in my clam chowder because thicker short pasta shapes work better than thinner longer styles.

Replace the clam with chicken and you've basically got one of my favourite things to eat right now - chicken in cream sauce. I'll have it either as a soup with potatoes, or skip the potatoes and eat with rice, bulgur, or pasta. I throw in a handful of whatever ready veg I have in the freezer, too (I'm working my way through my frozen kale stash at the moment. Delicious.

For those annoying purist of no cheese with fish/seafood your answer should be (aside from shhhhh) parmigiano reggiano is a seasoning and thickening ingredient.
It gives a saltiness and thickens the sauce hmmmm.
Ps I am thinking Conchigliette as an option for pasta too smaller but so yummy

The thumbnail put me off for a sec yet my curiosity overcame. Good though. A soup sauce for your favourite noodle. Id choose linguine for this. Mainly cause its cream sauce not a cheese one. Also maybe cut potatoes a tad larger and the other steps may remain. Love your work chef John xo

We always used to steam our clams in beer, and used the steaming liquid in our chowder. Try adding some beer ( we usually used either lager or pilsner, though one day I only had dark ale and that worked fine too ) So, you might try adding a little beer to taste with the canned clams.

I really don't understand the snobbish aversion towards combining cheese and seafood. Besides the glorious tuna melt, one of my go-to fish and cheese recipes is oven baked bacon wrapped cod in marinara, covered with mozzarella and pecorino.

Dear chef John I have a food wishes that I think you will love! Gnocchi alla Sorrentino.
Gnocchi in a rich tomato sauce and then covered in mozzarella (the good one) baked in the oven to perfection. pretty please!

Thank you Chef John! I do love New England clam chowder, but since Lent is upon us, I'm gonna work out a pescatarian recipe. Maybe a Manhattan-style clam chowder version of this, with smoked salmon in lieu of bacon.

It looked like Jamie Oliver's Sicillian pasta from the thumbnail, but ofcouse he uses tuna, caspers and fried tomate. Its from the Jamie Oliver's 15min cookbook, if I remember correctly.

Probably my earliest comfort food when I first started cooking for myself as a kid. reducing a can of clam chowder into a sauce and let coat over noodles. Love this grown up version
