This book has a dollp of history, a handful of recipes, a few anecdotes and a dash of humor....my one and only critique is that it should come with a cuppa chowda!
I am a New Englander transplanted to the south so in MY childhood there were always TWO chowdahs...New England with the milk and.. the other kind....Manhatten- orange- sacrilege. But no! There is clear?? hot sauce used? Rhode Island?? crackers used as a thickener?? Oh what a small chowdah world i've lived in.
Stone brought back some awesome memories of my mums homemade clam fritters and of days spent on the flats with my dad and sisters digging clams. Steamers...chowder...fritters....THOSE were the days. It brought a tear to my eye and drool dripping off my chin..
What i was amazed at is the fact that the earliest new england chowdah cooks DID use tomatoes in their recipes! I'd have bet money on that not being true.
Live and learn, READ HIS BOOKS and enlighten yourself.
ps- LOVED the singing clammettes… (mais)
