New England Clam Chowder

Ingredients

• 5 pounds fresh little necks or cherrystone clams (I prefer the smaller ones because they’re sweeter)
• 3/4 cup white wine
• 4 slices bacon, chopped
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup flour
• 1/2 cup onion, chopped
• 1/2 cup celery, chopped
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 medium russet potato (about ½ cup grated and another ½ cup chopped)
• 1 medium sweet potato (about ½ cup grated and another ½ cup chopped)
• 1 teaspoon finely chopped thyme (plus some for garnish)
• 12-15 dashes tabasco
• 1 1/4 cups heavy cream
• Crackers or bread (sourdough is nice)
• Lemon (optional)
