What To Do:

In a soup pot over medium heat, saute onion and celery 3 to 5 minutes, or until tender. Add clams, clam juice, chicken broth, potato, thyme, salt, and pepper; cover and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to medium, and cook, covered, 12 to 15 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. In a bowl, dissolve cornstarch in cream; add to soup.

Cook 5 minutes, or until thickened, stirring frequently.
