This clam chowder is tomato-based, not creamy. And it has a bit of kick from some hot sauce. If you're used to a creamy clam chowder, this is a bright change. Unlike a lot of soup recipes, the potatoes are added early in the cooking process here. This is because they take awhile to get tender and so you want to give them that time. Yield: 12 cups.
