Flavorful Clam Stew
I love creamy clam stew, a classic dish in American cuisine. I make this easy warm stew all the time. It's a favorite because of its rich flavors and hearty ingredients. When making clam stew, using fresh clams is key. Aromatics like onion and thyme add a lot of flavor. Look for clams that are just picked. They taste better and feel nicer in your mouth. Serve the stew with oyster crackers or crusty bread. They soak up the broth well. For storage, refrigerate it for 3-4 days or freeze it longer. Always follow food safety and storage tips.
