I like to use my Dutch Oven for Soup, Stews and Chowders. Get your pot on a med high heat. Add in your butter, oil, Onions, carrots, celery, garlic, salt & pepper. Stir cook for a few minutes. Then add in your potatoes, stir, cook couple more minutes.
Add in your fish stock, and enough water to cover veggies. Bring to a light boil and boil til vegetables are tender. I take the flour and mix it in the fish and shrimp Bowl. Add in all your seafood and parsley. Light boil for a bit longer. Til everything is all cooked.Add your milk/cream and corn just a few minutes before serving. Stir well. Add more salt pepper if needed!Seafood chowder always changes, as the seafood you use is never the same. Little homemade oyster crackers to go with our chowder today. Yummy. Let us know what you think.
