Expert Tips

Garnish individual bowls of chowder with additional crumbled cooked bacon, if desired.

If corn is in season, use fresh corn cut from the cob instead of frozen.

As other reviewers stated, the potato didn't cook in the 4 hrs. I suggest preparing for about 6 hrs cooking time and if it cooks sooner just turn to warm. I made this on a busy day and had to finish the cooking on the stove, which also thickened the sauce nicely. It had a good flavor and tasted much lighter than most chowders. My husband says it's a keeper.

WOW! This is THE BEST chowder EVER, and it's so easy to make! I definitely agree with making the potatoes into smaller cubes; I didn't see the previous reviewer's comments and so didn't make them small enough. The potatoes were a little hard, but the flavor of the chowder was spot on - so delicious. I added 1 TSP of salt at the end to taste and it was perfect! This is a keeper and one of my all-time favorites.

I recently had surgery and my daughter made this for my husband and I while I was down. OH MY GOSH!!! It was absolutely one of the best chowders/soup we have ever had. I am printing out this recipe and it will become a regular meal in our house. I have kielbasa in the freezer and will try it in the place of the bacon for a little different taste. Thank you Deborah for a wonderful recipe.
