2 tablespoons butter

1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes are best for chowder because they hold their shape well and have a creamy texture.
  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your chowder the best flavor. If you can't find fresh vegetables, frozen vegetables are a good option.
  • Cook the bacon until it's crispy: Crispy bacon adds a delicious smoky flavor to the chowder.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes: Overcooked potatoes will become mushy and ruin the texture of the chowder.
  • Season to taste: Add salt and pepper to taste until the chowder is flavorful but not too salty.
  • Serve immediately: Potato chowder is best served immediately after it's made. However, it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Potato chowder is a delicious and hearty soup that's perfect for a cold day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a pot of potato chowder that will warm you up from the inside out.
