Add bacon to pot and cook on med-low until crisp. Remove for later garnish and save drippings in pot.
To the bacon grease add butter, leeks, carrots and celery. Cook until soft - about 10 minutes.
Add flour and cook 1-2 minutes. Add clam juice and liquid from strained clams. Turn heat to medium and bring to boil.
Add potatoes, corn, bay leaves, thyme, parsley, black pepper and cayenne pepper. I did not add salt because the bacon, clam juice and clams had sufficient salt. Taste and add salt if needed.
When potatoes are fork tender, turn heat back to med-low. Add clams and heavy cream. Heat 5-10 minutes. Remove bay leaves before serving.
Serve with reserved bacon for garnish. Enjoy!
