1

Cook potatoes in clam juice and chicken broth until tender. Add clams and their liquid. Cook about 5 minutes. Set aside. Cook bacon, drain some grease. Add onions and saute. Add butter. When melted, add flour and cook until slightly colored. Bring potato mixture back to a boil, and gradually add the cooked roux. (I use a wisk to get rid of any lumps) Bring to a boil to thicken, stirring continually. Add the 1/2 and 1/2. Add seasonings
