submitted by propp

12 quahogs
3 tablespoons oil
2 to 3 onions, chopped
3 to 4 stalks celery, chopped
Part of a loaf of dry white bread
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper, or to taste
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon chopped parsley

Shuck the quahogs, saving the juices and shells. To make them easier to
shuck, you may put quahogs into the freezer for about an hour, or zap them
in the microwave for 30 seconds to relax the muscle. Chop quahogs. Chop
or tear bread into small pieces. Saute onions and celery in oil. Combine
quahogs, their juices, onions, celery, pepper, garlic powder and parsley.
Add enough of the bread to create the desired consistency. It should be a
little moist. If you add too much bread, moisten it with a little water.
Stuff shells. Bake on baking sheet at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Put a
little paprika and additional chopped parsley on top after cooking. Makes
24.
