In a small bowl, stir together the 1% milk and cornstarch. Add the cornstarch mixture, evaporated skim milk and liquid smoke to the potato mixture. Cook and stir until slightly thickened and bubbly. Stir in the clams. Return to a boil, then reduce the heat. Cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently. If desired, garnish with the peppercorns and thyme. This recipe yields 4 main-dish servings. Comments: Here is a regional favorite made healthy. Use canned rather than shucked clams because they're easy to have on hand.
