Recipes for a Rhode Island Summer comes from earlier days of projo.com, before I got lost in code.

Culled from decades of archives of the Providence Journal Food section, it's a representative sample of ways to prepare fresh lobster, clams, quahogs (large clams), chowders as they might be served here in the Ocean State. It's not all shellfish -- the recipes include pasta sauces, calimari, jonnycakes, lemon desserts, Approximately Del's Lemonade.

These were hand-picked by me, a few years back, with an eye towards flavor and a bias for real ingredients.


Memorial Day weekend, clams are (almost) in the air. Plant tomatoes, put geraniums on the ancestors' graves, toast the fallen at your barbeque, and live well while you can.
