50 States, 50 Sizzling Dishes: The Ultimate Foodie Road Trip Through The USA
New England-style Clam Chowder from Massachusetts
New England Clam Chowder, Massachusetts’ creamy culinary icon, has been warming bellies since the 1700s. It’s like a maritime history lesson in a bowl! Brought over by French and British settlers, it’s evolved into a thick, comforting potion of clams, potatoes, onions, and, of course, cream. No tomatoes here—that’s a Manhattan no-no!
This chowder is as much a part of Massachusetts as the Red Sox and unpredictable weather. It’s the kind of dish that says, “Hey, let’s hunker down and weather the Nor’easter with a spoon in hand!”
Next: Chili sauce and gooey cheeses are the stars of Michigan’s best street food.
