Clam Chowder Day

Love clams and chowder? Everyone’s heard of clam chowder, but did you know that it’s also has a holiday? Clam Chowder Day is a day all about celebrating the history of this beloved fish stew, historical in its origins to the New England area and helped ultimately inspire creations such as the Manhatten clam chowder, Rhode Island clam chowder, and Long Island clam chowder.

History of Clam Chowder Day

Chowder dates back as early as 1795 when chowder was originally made as water-based fish soup and various thickness featuring onions, potatoes, and carrots.

The origins of this kind of stew are said to have begun with the French, Nova Scotian, and British as it was a commoner’s dish during the 1700s. Crackers and croutons are usually added as a thickener, and it was just around that time when clam chowder started popping up as a popular version within the Boston area.

By 1836, clam chowder became a staple for sailors, as it was another way to make a constant diet of fish palatable. Most were then a creamy white soup, as a diary, later on, became a more popular addition to the soup in cooler regions where milk animals flourished.

Here’s a fun fact; In 1939, a bill was introduced into the in the Maine state legislature that almost made the use of tomatoes in clam chowder against the law. That’s how much they love their clam chowder!

Today, clam chowder has become a staple for many restaurants all over the United States and has also become more accessible for people when companies such as Campbell’s and Progresso introduced clam chowder in a soup can.

On this day, people either go out to their favorite places to eat clam chowder, buy a can of soup for dinner, or attempt to make their own clam chowder for dinner that day.

Purring faintly to himself, Bezi settled into a picnic table. A good view of the park, and the street beyond, stretched out in front of him; the perfect place to people-watch as he enjoyed his lunch.           Pulling an assortment of lidded bowls out of a large paper bag- though not large enough to old everything that came out of it- Bezi began setting up his meal, opening the variety of soups and setting them on their lids so they didn’t blow away.             Placing a butter dish on the table, he reached into the bag and pulled out another, smaller, bag full of big slices of bread and a bunch of utensils. The perfect breakfast for a pleasantly chilly day.             Delighted with the spread, he grabbed some bread and began to butter it up.
