List of Ingredients




1 stick butter
1 small onion, chopped
4 stalks celery, chopped
1 pint heavy cream
2 cans (16oz each) whole baby clams
1 cup clam broth
1/2 cup chicken broth (optional)
4 tablespoons thyme
4 tablespoons arrowroot
2 small tomatoes, chopped (optional)
8 spears asparagus, cut into 1/8ths
Salt and pepper, to taste

Recipe



In a medium size sauce pot, add the butter and melt on medium heat and
sauté` till caramelized. Remove from heat. Now add the arrowroot, which will
make a roué. Stir for 2-3 minutes. Now, slowly add the heavy cream and stir
well, return t9 heat and cook, making sure it doesn't come to a boil as the
cream will burn. At this point, add the chicken broth – I used it, but not
necessary) and lower the heat to a med-low setting. Add the clams, clam
broth, tomatoes and asparagus, season with salt and pepper to taste, add
more thyme if you like (I did).
