Placed all the vegetables in a pot. Drain the clam juice over the vegetables, and set the clams aside. Add enough water to just barely cover the vegetables. Simmer until potatoes are done

While vegetables are cooking, make the white sauce. Melt butter in a saucepan on medium heat and whisk in flour. Continue whisking as you pour in the half and half. Cook until mixture is smooth and thickened. Add white sauce and clams to undrained vegetables. Season with salt, pepper, and sugar. Combine thoroughly and bring up to a boil. Serve.

Personal Notes:
Bratten's was our favorite seafood restaurant in Salt Lake City many years ago. Their chowder was legendary.

This is easily made into Corn Chowder by substituting 1 cup corn for celery. Increase pepper to 1/8 teaspoon, and substitute cooked, crumbled bacon for the clams.
