INSTRUCTIONS
Heat a heavy stockpot over medium heat. Add salt pork, and cook until
golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Add onions, celery and garlic and saute until
softened, 5 to 10 minutes. Add clam juice or fish stock, fish, ptatoes,
thyme and bay leaves & simmer until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.
Discard bay leaves. With a slotted spoon, transfer about 2 cups of solids
to a bowl and mash with a potato masher or fork. Return to the soup. In a
small bowl, dissolve cornstarch in 1/4 cup water. In a small saucepan,
scald milk over low heat. Stir in the cornstarch mixture and add to the
milk. Cook, whisking constantly, until thickened. Stir into the soup. If
necessary, reheat the soup. Season with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls
and garnish with parsley.

milk thickened with a bit of cornstarch gives this nourishing chowder body
and creaminess---without the cream. A little salt pork rounds out the
flavor. Reformatted by: CYGNUS, HCPM52C
