Potato Clam Chowder
I ran across this recipe in one of my antique cookbooks. It's a timeless classic I like to prepare for friends and family throughout the year, but especially during the holidays. —Betty Ann Morgan, Upper Marlboro, Maryland

Linda the recipe calls for 2 cups of 2% milk
I don't see milk in the ingredients but the directions say "add milk".
I used chicken stock instead of water, when I make it again I will probably use more clam juice instead of the water. Also, I used more clams, 17oz, it was delicious.
