Homebrew 2

After making my own clam chowder in September, I somehow cooled off to the subject and stopped collecting new experiences. Though, we haven't been anywhere since September, except for Killington, where the clam chowder on the base was same as  before.

Yesterday, I made my second clam chowder for Alik, visiting for New Years. This time, I followed the recipe more closely affording only one deviation - instead of the bacon grill, I cooked with five or six strips of bacon cut into little squares (I used kitchen scissors). Also I added generous amount (2tbs) of butter while sauteing onions and potatoes. I seasoned it just a bit with some Russian "delicious salt". I think it came out perfect. I'd give it three stars. Leon said it's better than the first time. Alik said it's a bit too thin, but I think if we would wait a few hours, it would thicken more.
