For this recipe, is a stalk of celery the whole bunch or only one stick?

Hello! - Whenever we refer to a stalk of celery we mean just the one stick. :) Enjoy!

This is one of the best New England clam chowder I ever made, this is a very easy and quick recipe to make. I make a double batch so I have left overs because it's even better the next day.

We all enjoyed this soup which i served in bowls with bread on the side to cut carbs. I added white wine and prawns. Next time I make it will also add some herbs
