Can I Make Clam Chowder Better Than A New Englander? | Cooking The States (Massachusetts)

[@Cullenatorable]

One of the most underrated KZbin chef in the game right now. Imagine the content he'll pump out when he has enough followers to be a full time content creator.

[@AdamWitt]

Actually, I am full time. My larger platforms are on IG and TikTok, but my heart is here with long-form KZbin. Thanks for watching dude.

[@tom.zombie.thediscordian]

one of the more satisfying meals I've had was New England clam chowda and a beer in Boston. Can recommend

[@castironchaos]

And when your chowda is done, don't forget to eat the bread bowl! I can't believe how many times I've seen people throw that wonderful delicacy out.

[@AdamWitt]

It's the best part!

[@kennethsatria6607]

I recall accidentally eating the bread too soon and cause a leakage XD

[@lizmoore7191]

I grew up in Massachusetts and clam chowder was the go-to meal on Fridays. Fridays were meatless meals, so, no bacon. The chowder was thick, rich and flavorful. No bacon necessary for this iconic soup.

[@IlysmCarrot]

Then also no clams?

[@DanaMerkel]

Clam chowder is also a dish that comes grom Washington State. It is creamy like that Massachusetts, but seasoned domewhat diffrrently.

[@karinarodriguez6527]

This is my favorite soup! Can’t wait to try this recipe! Thank you

[@chapo5541]

Yea you def just inspired this weekends clam chowder meal

[@AdamWitt]

Lehhh goooo

[@IlysmCarrot]

I have been craving clam chowder for so long. Def saving this video to try it soon!

[@TeresaTeresaTeresa-t5o]

Love NE clam chowder. Great to sub out the flour with a couple large tablespoons of plain instant mashed potatoes. I always keep some on hand to thicken soups.

[@castironchaos]

The most famous seafood restaurant from Massachusetts is Legal Seafoods. I'd say that CHOWDA probably surpasses their exquisite fare.

[@AdamWitt]

I gotta try it next time im in the area.

[@div3rse595]

@@AdamWitt You best hit me up if you're ever in the area

[@msgypsyqueen]

Oh YES... That looks DELISH! 😍 .. You have a new SUB - I like your content. Cheers from 🇨🇦😬

[@AdamWitt]

Thank you!

[@jhawksrule75]

Heck yeah, love these

[@louis8869]

Man you had me all scared at first cooking it all in a boil bowl and then when i saw your game plan right after i was like "ahhhhh shiiiiiiiit" Subscribed man! Love that Detroit style one too!

[@Me-ev4ix]

Yummy 😋 I definitely want to make this!

[@briancolton6618]

There’s no way you could’ve known, but chowder is only what people not from Massachusetts think is our signature regional food. Try making a north shore beef sandwich, that is the true hidden gem of Massachusetts

[@blahblahblahblech]

Clam Chowder is the bomb! More seafood! if you havent done CA yet, consider chipino

[@nessidoe8080]

I second this! More water creatures plz!

[@anthonyterry8162]

Great vid Adam. Love chowder. Still got to make your deep dish pizza buddy

[@AdamWitt]

Heck yeah dude! I hope you dig it. Working on another Chicago pizza video now actually.

[@anthonyterry8162]

@@AdamWitt awesome!

[@Jackalope235]

Let's see...my best friend is from Detroit (9 Mile which is one better than 8!) and she's always raving about Coney dogs, Vernor's ginger ale, and...Detroit style pizza. That would be a good one! So what do you think about adding corn meal to the clam soaking water to encourage them to purge? Seems like they always did that in all the cooking shows of my yoot. ;)

[@AdamWitt]

Vernors is bomb. So were the coneys. You'll have to wait and see!

[@Jackalope235]

@@AdamWitt Nailed it!

[@trev80]

Looks good but as a Boston native we don’t use bread bowls, only San Francisco does.

[@AdamWitt]

I've seen bread bowls in NE plenty. I know SF is sourdough capital of the US, but I don't think it's unauthentic to serve chowda in a bread bowl.

[@trev80]

Totally authentic, just not as common! Love it though, keep up the good work.

[@castironchaos]

@@AdamWitt This Masshole (as I've said too many times) confirms. Many places serve chowda in regular bowls, but quite a few serve it in bread bowls. Including another local chain called Boston Chowda Co. (It's spelled that way in their official business name.)

I don’t even know how long it’s been since I’ve had Clam Chowder. I need to get it again

[@AdamWitt]

I second that.

MassHole checking in again: Good work, sir. Ty for not showcasing boiled dinner.

[@AdamWitt]

LOL, not a problem. Thanks.

[@dbugged]

Looks great. But what did you say about clarified butter having more flavor than regular butter?? All the flavor is in the milk solids...

[@hellacooook]

How about a dash of dashi stock to up the savory and some chopped parsley for garnish CHEF!

[@michaelbehrens3167]

No clue where to actually buy clams like that. Hmmmmm. Looks amazing.

[@GnaoHyaM]

Usually in Asian markets. They are super cheap and fresh.

[@stephenburke7108]

wicked good, kid.

[@privateprivate5302]

I would totally keep the potato skin on

[@craigg6621]

Oh good i can finally hang that wallpaper

[@tainicon4639]

Technically… that is thicker than you would usually see in New England. I had clam chowder like that in Seattle though.

[@MaxtheMeatGuy]

[@UltimateBrownie]

Making classic American recipes but using ingredients that you want to make it more fancy isn’t classic. You’re putting your own twist on a classic recipe. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@tarus94]

Yeah tf is this guy on

[@bonzodog67lizardking15]

Chowdah's secret is in its simplicity. BUT, unsmoked salt pork is MUCH better than bacon. Why? Because smoked bacon, while excellent in a straight potato soup, is always upstaging the clams in a chowdah! Also, avoid Better Than Bullion clam base as it has a finish that tastes sickly sweet like molasses. Any sweetness is best when it comes from the carrots alone.

[@northerngm6431]

I was watching and really liked what I saw, until you boiled the clams! As a New Englander, I was devastated, no self-respecting New Englander would ever boil them! You lose all of the clam brine. If I did that, I would expect to be kicked out of my home and deservedly so!

[@watchfulone9717]

dude you went to all that trouble to make clam chowder and you used jarred garlic 5:22 which stinks and tastes nothing like freshly chopped minced garlic. wow... lame

[@AdamWitt]

Umm, no I didn't. I just pre-mince it before filming to make it quicker on camera.

[@Lance-Stroll]

Way too much dairy. That's what they serve tourists

[@jamiesmama1]

Man, this recipe is unnecessarily complicated. Go the trad route.
