MOM'S FISH CHOWDER image

Yield 4-6 people

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb. haddock or cod (I use more like 2 lbs)
4 small potatoes
1 piece salt pork or bacon ("size of a walnut" but I use about 3 oz.))
1 onion
2 cups fish stock or bottled clam broth/juice
4 cups whole milk

Steps:

  • Cover fish barely with fish stock or bottled clam juice. Cook 5-10 minutes once comes to a boil. Remove fish with spatula, and add to the stock 4 small potatoes which have been peeled and cut into cubes. Boil potatoes in fish stock until cooked, about 10 mins, Meanwhile, mince salt pork or bacon and cook until golden and crisp. Remove and save. Cook onion, diced, in pork fat until transparent, not brown. Combine all ingredients in your stock pot: fish, potatoes, onions, fish stock,salt pork, and add 4 cups whole milk. Test for salt and pepper. (Here you can also add some thyme - though Mom did not) Raise heat of chowder to JUST BELOW boil. Turn off heat and let it sit UNCOVERED for 2 hours, and then put it in the refrigerator overnight. DO NOT cover the chowder until it is cool.

This chowder is not worth the effort. It's bland and watery.

This chowder is a bit too thick for my taste, but the flavor is still good.

I was a bit skeptical about the dill, but I'm so glad I added it. It really gives the chowder a unique and delicious flavor.

This chowder is so easy to make, yet it tastes like it came from a fancy restaurant. I'll definitely be making it again and again.
