CREAMY FISH CHOWDER
WE were tired of the same old vegetable soup and I had on hand some fish that needed to be cooked, so this was the creation of our favorite fish chowder. Occasionally, I enhance it still further by adding another vegetable, such as corn or peas, to add to color and nutrition.

CREAMY FISH CHOWDER WITH RED BELL PEPPERS
You can use almost any fresh or frozen fin fish for this tasty chowder. The pronounced flavors of the vegetables are tempered by the addition of cream at the end of the cooking. If using frozen fish, it is not necessary to thaw completely before adding to soup. Thaw only long enough to be able to cut into cubes and add 5 minutes to cooking time. Great served with hot garlic bread and a chilled Chardonnay.

Tips:
- Use fresh fish. The fresher the fish, the better the soup will taste. If you can, buy fish that was caught the same day.
- Choose a firm-fleshed fish. Fish that are too soft, such as tilapia or cod, will fall apart in the soup. Some good choices for fish chowder include salmon, halibut, and haddock.
- Cook the fish gently. Overcooking the fish will make it tough and dry. Simmer the fish for just a few minutes, until it is cooked through but still tender.
- Use a good quality broth. The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good one. You can use homemade broth, or you can use a store-bought broth that is low in sodium.
- Add vegetables. Vegetables add flavor and nutrition to the soup. Some good choices for vegetables in fish chowder include potatoes, carrots, celery, and onions.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You may also want to add a splash of lemon juice or white wine.
- Serve the soup hot. Fish chowder is best served hot, with a side of crusty bread or crackers.
