EXCELLENT Chowder!! I have made this twice so far. I did cut the liquid back by about half maybe a little less. Served at a dinner party for 8 people as a first course & everyone raved.
This is an excellent recipe. Also is an excellent base for fish chowder. Add your own favorite seafoods for variation.
Wow- I was VERY disappointed with this recipe. First of all since the vegetables (including the potatoes) were "minced" it really lacked the chunky vegetables usually associated with a chowder. Secondly there was very little flavor even though I added additional clam juice cayenne pepper and salt & pepper. The broth also seemed to seperate making a very odd consistency. My husband who found & was looking forward to the recipe ordered a pizza.
Be prepared to freeze this soup or eat it for a few days. My 13 month old loves it with crackers crumbled in it(seafood picked out of course). We're a family of three; mommy daddy and baby. Just to give you idea of how much it will feed...for a few days!! Very tasty perfect for cold weather.
This is an outstanding chowder better than most restaurants can dream up for sure! The Sherry adds a touch of class and it's a breeze to cook up on short notice. I used whole cream and skim milk as that's what I had on hand and in the future I intend to add some haddock or cod to add a bit more seafood to the mix. This is a can't miss recipe for those who love a good rich seafood chowder!
I did not find this recipe very good. I had to add chicken boullion to give it some taste. Way too much liquid also. I wont make this again.
This was wonderful. Any fish or seafood will work. Even the kids enjoyed this.
Often times I surf the web looking for ingredients for newly created recipes and of course check out all recipes (that’s a given for me).I saw your recipe online and decided to adopt from it. I wanted to make a medley of seafood items in a dish very much like yours. I love your ingredients and from that I made a few changes and here’s what I did.Instead of using water I exchanged that for chicken broth and whole milk instead of half-and-half.I upped the butter to one cup. In my sauté I chopped celery, green onions and white onions. I added. Oyster sauce, and plenty of obey seasoning. I omitted the tomatoes. Of course the corn and potatoes.I included cod fish, salmon, shrimp, scallops, oysters, clams, and squid I wanted but I didn’t have any on hand. In conclusion my dish was scrumptious. Thank you for helping me through your recipe in creating a dish of seafood medley. Kevin, Washington DC
I changed the recipe by adding Lobster, Crab, & Clams to the Scallops and Shrimp. I also added Old Bay Seasoning and tripled the Sherry (half w/onions and half with the shellfish) to make an absolutely delicious dish! Add some good Sourdough Bread for the perfect main course!
