Creamy Seafood Chowder image

This is one great chowder recipe. It's super creamy and guaranteed to warm you up on a cold night. All the wonderful flavors of the fish shine through, but this doesn't taste fishy. Can't wait to make this again!

This chowder was a waste of time. It was bland and watery.

This chowder was a bit too creamy for my taste. I prefer a chowder with a thinner broth.

This chowder was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I found this chowder to be too salty. I had to add a lot of water to make it palatable.

This chowder was a disappointment. The broth was bland and the seafood was overcooked.
