Directions:
- Strain the clams, reserving the liquid. Set aside. (Again, feel free to use three or four cans; if you do, and you like a thicker chowder, only use liquid from two of the cans.).
- Saute the onion in bacon grease until lightly browned. Set crumbled bacon and onion aside.
- Simmer potatoes and carrots in boiling water until tender and potatoes fall apart (could be 10-15 minutes, depending on how high your heat is).
- Add reserved clam liquid (but not clams), bacon, onion, and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for another five minutes or so.
- Add half-and-half. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
- Add canned clams and heat through.
- Add thyme and, if necessary, additional salt and pepper.
- Serve immediately, with good French bread (try a Clear Flour baguette if you live in the Boston area).
