Fry finely diced bacon or salt pork. When it starts to give up it's fat add finely diced onion. Cook until translucent but not browned. Add clams and broth. And diced potatoes. Boil until potatoes are done, soft enough to mash without a utensil.

You can garnish with parsley but soda crackers or saltines are a necessity. Some people add flour mixed with a little water to thicken but we never did.
