For a smoother chowder, use an immersion blender to partially blend the vegetables before adding the clams. Adjust the amount of jalapeño peppers to suit your spice preference. For a milder chowder, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeños before chopping. Fresh herbs, such as oregano or basil, can be added in the last 15 minutes of cooking for an extra layer of flavor. Serve with crusty bread or oyster crackers for a complete and satisfying meal.
