So I fry five slices of bacon until crisp, took them out, and sauteed sliced carrot and leek. For some reason leek goes particularly well with seafood soups where the recipe calls for onion. Seasoned with rosemary and thyme.

Added two TBSP of flour to make a roe but needed a TBSP of butter because the bacon was unusually lean. Added 2.5 cups whole milk and two chopped new potatoes. covered for 12 minutes or so over low heat stirring occasionally. Added two cans of minced clams w/ juice and let cook uncovered until the right thickness. Salt and pepper. Serves 2 normal people or one big guy.

Served in bowls topped with the crumbled bacon and a bit of parsley.

As good as I've ever had.
