I went to college in Boston and ate the Legal Seafoods clam chowder almost every day from our school cafeterias. This version is so good! The flavours and textures reminded me of college. I loved the combination of mushrooms and soy curls. I used regular oyster mushrooms and king oyster mushrooms. I didn’t have any tempeh bacon so I omitted it (bacon also was not in Legal’s chowder). I also didn’t have thyme so I used fresh oregano. I added a squirt of lemon and of course a vinegar based hot sauce to my bowl. Thank you!

My husband is not vegan and he approves of this recipe. he says it has a good flavor and texture similar to the real thing. I have shared this recipe with my daughter-in-law law who is vegan.

Really chilly in Southern California. Made this chowder last night. Terrific recipe. I would, next time, boil the soy curls in a vegan broth to up the flavor. Also added some extra spice. Overall, this recipe is worth making. Delicious. Thank you Erin!

This recipe was really good. As a Boston native, I don’t really recall ever having a classic clam chowder with bacon in it before going vegan tbh, but I was willing to give it a try with the benevolent kind. I was impressed. I think if I were to do the whole thing again, I would probably omit the benevolent bacon and the soy curls. I think the yukon gold potatoes and the mushrooms were the true stars of the show, combined with the cashew cream. Thanks for the creative take on a classic New England treat.

OMG it was sooooo good Erin! Made a few slight changes but it only lasted 2 days in my home. So sadly I don’t know if it will freeze well either. lol!
I plan to make it again so I will keep you posted!!

In reply to Tanesha. Hi Tanesha, I haven't tried freezing this, but if you try and reheat with good results, I'd love to know!

I’m going to try this today. Does it freezes well? I want to double this for later enjoyment. But based on other replies it may not make it to the freezer. Lol!
