The State’s Best Dish: Massachusetts Clam Chowder
The State’s Best Dish: Massachusetts Clam Chowder

Clam chowder has deep historical roots in Massachusetts, dating back to the 1700s when early settlers began creating hearty, nourishing soups using available ingredients. This New England staple is believed to have been inspired by European fish and shellfish stews, especially those from France and England. When settlers arrived in the New World, they adapted these recipes with local ingredients, such as clams, which were abundant along the Massachusetts coast.
