- 1/2 Tbl. Margarine or Butter.

- 2 Tbl. Flour
- 1/4 Tsp. Pepper
- 2 Tbl. Sherry or Marsala

DIRECTIONS
In a soup pot, melt butter.
Add onions mushrooms and pepper; cooking till onions are translucent.
Sprinkle flour over all then stir and cook for a minute.
Deglaze with the Marsala, then immediately add the chicken stock & Worcestershire, stirring until it comes to a boil and is slightly thickened.
Allow to simmer for a couple of minutes, then add the clams and their broth, and the half & half.
Bring soup back to almost boiling before serving.
NOTE: As with any dairy-based soup, do not allow to boil, or it will separate.
This soup tastes even better if made the day before serving, to allow flavors to develop.
