Reviews
This was very tasty and easy to make. I used smoked salmon and for the white fish I used Haddock. Very easy and very tasty.
This is the first time I made Chowder of any sort. I used the recipe because it was simple enough. Because I didnt like leek so I replaced the leek with carrots and corn, I also added some mushrooms and one small onion in the potato chowder. I left the potato chowder overnight because soup always taste better overnight! And the next day I used smoked trout only as the fish and a very small piece of smoked salmon from leftovers and blended the salmon with cream and added everything into the fish chowder and it turned out better than I ever expected! The chowder can be mixed and matched with any fish and it would still turn out great!
Im looking forward to next time I make it without leaving it overnight to see if the taste will be as good as this batch! I would recommend this to any “beginners” to chowder making. Its simply divine.
