I grew up on the east coast (NB, Quebec, PEI, NL) and have been cooking chowders for 55 years. I made a very standard (boring but tasty) clam chowder for many of those years until I started making my own fish stocks and experimenting with different combinations of seafood. My absolute favourite combination was only last week: (no bacon) halibut bone stock, liquid from home smoked salmon and a bit of the salmon, blue lipped NZ mussels, clams, scallops. I use many different combinations from whatever is available (halibut cheeks or ling cod are great but rarely have lobster where i live). Summer savoury and/or thyme are my preferred herbs. Just remember folks, chowder is delicious however you choose to create it. Lovely to see chowders on the mainstage. Thanks.
I have been making this for about a year now. I have added clam juice and clams. I cannot find smoked fish right now. So I use tilapia. And it is wonderful!!! thanks! 💜
My mom was a Boston girl. We would hit Durgin-Park and Legal Seafood when in town. I remember the chowder at Legal was brimming with fish and shellfish.
Your recipe is very much appreciated by this Cape Cod (or now Cape Codless) Massachusetts USA cook. Thanks for the imaginative modifications and adjuncts for a seafood chowder. I will be cooking this for my family this week.
I've made this a few times now, and it's one of my dad's favorites! It's not cheap to make where I live, but it is absolutely delicious, and it's in our repertoire for special occasions. Thanks for sharing this!
Thank you. I will try your recipe for sure. I will try it with pork jowl instead of bacon just to see if there's a difference. Thank you for sharing. Blessings
My grandmother used Carnation Can cream milk (one can per Lobster tail) in her Lobster chowder; fry Cooked Lobster in real butter until browned; add cream add a T of vinegar; wait until the cream thickens and poured over potatoes (they had 8 kids) and the flavour of the Lobster is soooo good. I find the Carnation a bit rich so I usually half it with cream or milk and pour over Linguini YUM
Have you ever heard of Summer Savoury? I was surprised to find how difficult it is to obtain in western Canada. I like it. lol Probably cause my mom used it; makes it familiar? I don't make it, without it. Just a personal thing I guess. I tried the experimental flavour thing over the years from smokey to spicy. All good; but, that's because there is no better chowder than the one you make. I finally have come to the conclusion that there is something to be said for simple. A reason my mom always kept it simple? After 60 years that's how I likes it. Poor like; leaves you grateful. Merry Christmas and a Happy New year to you all. My wife was never fond of seafood and she was the daughter of a lobsterman, when we were getting married I thought everything is perfect except for that, I was thinking there is something wrong with this woman, there wasn't; it was me. Did I mention the summer savoury.
Hello from Maine USA. Thanks for the video. My own version for this time of year, is a seafood corn chowder, using all the usual suspects for ingredients along with fresh corn cut off the cob. It is a hit around here. I use lobster stock from shells and bodies I save in the freezer from lobster boils, plus I make some mussel broth to add to it all. For the milk I use organic coconut cream ps I have been to Nova Scotia a couple of times. Love it there. Way back in 69 my family stayed at Parker's Cove, and my girlfriend and I visited there so I could see it once again in 2017 (or 2018 Can't quite remember now in my old age).
Wonderful recipe! I usually add a little bit of liquid smoke to my chowder and gives it a great smokey flavour! I love my chowder loaded up so much that it’s pretty much like a fisherman’s stew! I usually serve mine with a baguette. Great comfort food for sure! 😊😜
Love your version of seafood chowder.....I will give it a try soon. My family always have chowder on Christmas eve, and I'm looking forward to a change. Thanks for sharing! GLORIA
You have just made me want to cook up a chowder for the first time in my life. It truly looks absolutely lovely and screams winter comfort food. Thank you so much!
Living in the Yukon and it is still WINTER here...snowing again tonight! Just finished a huge bowl of this chowder, Delicious! I had never cooked with Haddock before and the addition of the Smoked Oysters kind of made me quiver, every other ingredient I was in love with. So happy I followed your recipe to a tee. Going to share this with friends who love chowder. Now I just have to make the biscuits to go with my next bowl. My sister lives in Stillwater Lake, NS and I have encouraged her to get her Chowder/Biscuits going.
Hi. Chowder looks absolutely delicious. I would never have thought to add the smoked oysters or the smoked haddock. Can’t wait to try it. . It’s been years ago that I read and enjoyed you newspaper column. Still have a few of the recipes. Thanks for sharing on you tube.
The smoked oysters and haddock set this recipe apart and it’s why we love it. It feels like forever ago since the Herald column! Thanks for continuing to follow along all these years later!
Very nice looking recipe. It looks to have the depth of flavour I very much enjoy. I use a beurre manié to thicken my other chowders and would likely do so with a seafood chowder as well. I'm glad to see that "it's not just me" when it comes to smoked oysters and dill in a chowder. Thank you for the great looking recipe. I intend to make it soon.
Taught cooking for 8 years. No flour, no corn starch. Wow, a cook after my own heart. I only thicken my soups with ingredients. Thank you. I am from the West Coast but have lived in the East Coast.
100%. No roux, yes on the heavy cream, pure. Lovely. Nova Scotia indeed; the roux is more Wuebec. (Don’t get me wrong, I like a gumbo, I lived in New Orleans) - but I agree it’s purer with no flour -no roux! And I love the leeks.
The first seafood chowder i ever tested and is still the best is at peggys cove while studied in Halifax in the early 1980. I will definitely try this and plan to visit Halifax next spring and hopefully visit your restaurant than.
I’m new to Canada. Been here for almost a year now in New Brunswick. The seafood chowder is the go to dish for everyone. I had it myself and fell in love with it so I wanted to prepare it myself and was directed to your channel. It looks amazing! I’ll definitely give it a try. And I love the fact that there’s no cornstarch in it because I’m myself averse to thickening the soup with that. Gluten-free it is ❤
The last time we went to Halifax I did a seafood chowder survey. Everyday at lunch I had chowder at a different restaurant. The best one was at the Armview. It was magnificent. Next time I am coming to try yours.
I use to live in downtown Dartmouth. I loved the Canteen. I miss it so much. Thank you so much for posting these videos. It brings a little bit of the Canteen back home to me. LOVE a the Crobster! Haha
You wet my appetite can’t wait to make it. Thank you, since I’m diabetic I will substitute potatoes, loved that you used leeks n celery! I will use daikon or rutabagas or turnips. Will so look forward to surprising my fisherman husband! Who loves loves chowder but he’s-on a healthy keto ! So will tweek it to his delight!
Amazing! We followed along and it improved our recipe. Our only addition was Acadian Lobster Paste that we add in just before serving. Made in PEI! Thanks so much!
Made it last night and friend of our came for supper and this is the best chowder I ever made ,even my wife said it was the best chowder so thank you Renée for the recipe 😉
Thanks so much for posting these recipes. First time for chowder for my wife and I. Love your chowder. So happy we found your sight - love your recipes. Helen and Tommy London
Ha! I knew I could use smoked muscles instead of the clam for fish chowder!(my friend from NB said it wouldn't work well) Yummmm! I'm making it tomorrow, but I had to make sure I have the ingredients. Thank you so so so so much for this!! 🤗
My Art Teacher as a freshman in College was a Mr. Wunderlich, who transferred from SUNY Brockport to Dartmouth (1984). I wonder if you ever took one of his elective Art classes of knew of him?
Awsome recipe thank you. I don’t eat pork and so use Westcoast smoked candied salmon cut very small to trick the bacon taste buds. I add corn n carrots too… 👍😂
Your chowder looks amazing ! I use smoked baby clams and clam juice. I do use flour to make a roux with butter and the oil from the clams. The remaining seafood ingredients are only what I can find them fresh here in California. will try leeks instead of spanish onions next time. I use fresh parsley and black pepper instead of dill because my wife and kids will not eat dill in anything. Thanks for the great content...
Thanks for tuning in all the way from California. Love hearing that! Clams in the chowder is also delicious. Let us know how your version of this recipe turns out!
Your recipes have been winners. This seafood chowder (with some $saving cheats) will be a Department “SoupOff”!!! Do you have a sourdough biscuit recipe??
I make what many, many people have described as "the best seafood chowder ever". The recipe came from my west coast grandmother. But, get this, I absolutely detest seafood (exceptions - halibut and fresh tuna) so I have never actually tasted the seafood chowder that my friends and family rave about...and I've been preparing the same recipe (seafood ingredients vary according to seasonal availability) for more than 30 years. LOL! I'm going to try your recipe and find out if they even notice the difference. My bet, is that they like yours better!
Greetings from Ireland! Chowder on the menu this week in our house so I cannot wait to get cracking! New Subscriber… delighted I found you guys and looking forward to watching your Recipes! 👍🏻
Biscuits made to enjoy with the Seafood Chowder...perfection! Spoke with my sister in NS about your video and surprise...she knew you from Acadia Maple, as she worked the Pancake Breakfasts for several years (during the time you were headed to France). I thought I was surprising her and low and behold it was the other way around! Love your videos, looking forward to the next one
I was taught to use a can of cream of mushroom soup at the end with a cup of cream. Weird but really good.! Looking forward to trying smoked oysters and haddock. Thanks for sharing 😉
I will always order chowder if its on a menu when I go out to eat. The Canteen's is my absolute favourite!! Thanks for this I will be trying your recipe for sure!!!
I made this for my family this evening. My dad said it was delicious and that it was the best seafood chowder he's ever had. Thanks so much for the recipe. Happy New Year (2022) from Fredericton!
Thanks for tuning in from across the pond! We find that smoked oysters really make this chowder unique. Give it a try and let us know what you think! 😀
I have tried this reciepe , I guaretee it is as good as advertised . Nothing left out . Many times i have tried tube reciepes. . People tend to leave something out , deliberately . They make a vid to make a vid. to. get money , but they usually leave something out , because they dont want anyone elses recipe to be better than thiers . This woman left nothing out . A very honest person .
I want to make this chowder tomorrow, I don't have smoked haddock but I do have a can of smoked mussels, do you think that would make the flavour too smoky with both smoked oysters and smoked mussels? I can't wait to make this I getting really hungry right now. LOL
I thought I was the only one who made chowder for Xmas, looks great! I usually go with lobster, shrimp, haddock and scallop. Oops I do like carrots sorry, my family likes it a bit little hardy not too much though. I am a fan of the lemon and dill, the family’s not so much. Oh I like a dash of Worcestershire sauce. I was told that halibut would be a good fish, on the fence? Thanks for the content first time I’ve had the opportunity to view can’t wait to visit your business. Caper in the city
I just found your video and was intrigued by using the smoked oysters and smoked halibut. Could you use Kippered Herring and oil instead of the oysters? I have several tins that I would like to use in something besides just eating them on crackers or toast.
So, here in this NS home, seafood chowder includes, Potatoes, Carrots, Celery, White Onion, Chicken soup base, Coffee cream, Blend, Bacon, Scallops, Haddock, Lobster, Baby Shrimp, Clams, Salmon.. butter & garlic butter! Making one today, Christmas in July! ❤
Looks great - I want a bowl for myself! The smoked oysters - brilliant addition, can't wait to try it, fall at the latest. 100 degrees temps currently so, watermelon cold :)
I’ll be making this tomorrow… it’s my first time making a seafood chowder.. my boyfriend says “you gotta put velveeta in it”. So I’m a lil nervous. I hope he likes it without the cheese. 🤞🏼
I make my sea food chowder with clams, shrimp, white fish, potatoes, onions, clan juice, and a number of things. I am a flat lander. I amazed East Coasters how good I made my sea food chowder!! They thought my Wife ,a East Coaster made it!! LOL
From one Chef to another, I truly enjoy your content. It’s very well-made, with easy step-by-step instructions for people to understand. Thanks so much!! One thing is, I just stumbled along to your channel and noticed that you haven't made any content in a while, will you be making more in the future? P.S. you both deserve a cooking show, if you haven't already been signed by a network, they should.
OMG this looks Amazing,,, I wish i could find Smoked Haddock , I grew uop eating smoke everything back in the da, fr NL , where then everything was Plantiful n fishermen would hand u fresh catch off the day,, Im differently gonna try this , praying i can find some Smoke Haddock here is Alberta is like trying to find Attlantis,, hehe,,, looks Delicoius,, tu for sharing,,
I have never made a chowder. But this looks so freakin great!!!! I'm getting up in the morning and try this recipe. Big storms coming in the evening so I'm gonna do this beforehand. Ty so much.
Hello! I have some questions! Can I replace potato water with stock and flour (roux) even though it won’t be GF anymore? Should I parboil the potato’s before going into the chowder pot? Or can they cook all the way in the chowder? For my own understanding to simplify it’s fats -> mirepoix -> potato’s and stock/water -> milk and or cream -> white fish -> garnish
I made it with salmon,shrimp,scallops and it was great

Those all sound like great ideas. We completely agree! It's important to make chowder your own! Thanks for watching.
I am soooo glad you said Quebec properly and not " KAH BECK".
Seasons' greetings from Singapore. Canadians make the best seafood crowder. This reminds me of the wonderful years in Acadia!
I have been making this for about a year now. I have added clam juice and clams. I cannot find smoked fish right now. So I use tilapia. And it is wonderful!!! thanks! 💜
My mom was a Boston girl. We would hit Durgin-Park and Legal Seafood when in town. I remember the chowder at Legal was brimming with fish and shellfish.
The chowder at Legal was wicked good
Only watched as far as 1:22 minutes, after you sought reassurance three times already from the bloke off camera. Cooking with confidence is key, man!
That makes you a turd. Respect between spouses demonstrates respect for other people... Hope you're sterile
Your channel is totally empty, LOSER
Your recipe is very much appreciated by this Cape Cod (or now Cape Codless) Massachusetts USA cook. Thanks for the imaginative modifications and adjuncts for a seafood chowder. I will be cooking this for my family this week.
I thought I was freak because I liked smoked oysters in my chowders.I must be home.
I had a teacher in Europe back in 80s named Mr lavallee, don't know if he's a relative. Love the chowder
Made this for dinner tonight, didn't have a lemon but I used a lime for zest and let me say it was AMAZING thank you! I had been craving this all day
So that you enjoyed it. It’s such a comforting dish!
I’m always happy to find celery with lots of green leaves on it.
I've made this a few times now, and it's one of my dad's favorites! It's not cheap to make where I live, but it is absolutely delicious, and it's in our repertoire for special occasions. Thanks for sharing this!
I love a good seafood chowder thanks for sharing this recipe with us
You're the first person don't used flower to thinking the soup... like Your style... I rather used cream.... very nice...
Have a Great Day
It is a New England thing not to use any thickner like flour or corn starch but some people mash up the potatoes for a thicker broth.
From Dartmouth too💜 so happy to see someone from home doing my fav soup
I live in Nova Scotia...and tomorrow is Christmas Eve and I'm making Chowder!
Thank you. I will try your recipe for sure. I will try it with pork jowl instead of bacon just to see if there's a difference. Thank you for sharing. Blessings
Merci Renée. J'ai suivi vos instructions et le résultat s'est avéré délicieux. 🙂
She is fantastic! The constant interaction with doug is annoying though. Beautiful dish
My first time watching. I agree on the interaction bit.
My grandmother used Carnation Can cream milk (one can per Lobster tail) in her Lobster chowder; fry Cooked Lobster in real butter until browned; add cream add a T of vinegar; wait until the cream thickens and poured over potatoes (they had 8 kids) and the flavour of the Lobster is soooo good.

Good answer Doug keep the wife happy. Hers is always best.
Love your version of seafood chowder.....I will give it a try soon. My family always have chowder on Christmas eve, and I'm looking forward to a change. Thanks for sharing! GLORIA
It looks like a teacher and a student. Poor Doug, he is having his memory tests every now and then with her questions. 😁
You have just made me want to cook up a chowder for the first time in my life. It truly looks absolutely lovely and screams winter comfort food. Thank you so much!
Go for it! Let us know how it turns out!

substituted rendered duck fat instead of oyster oil! *chef's kiss
Chefs take note, this is benchmark chowder !
Smokey, smokey, goodness.
Greetings from a fellow chef in Australia.
Thanks for the kind words. The smokiness is key!

Amazing! We followed along and it improved our recipe. Our only addition was Acadian Lobster Paste that we add in just before serving. Made in PEI! Thanks so much!
Sounds great! We'll have to give the lobster paste a try sometime. Very intriguing ! 😀
I love your channel! Your interaction is wonderful. New guy here. My own chowder is Shrimp Crab and Corn chowder. You two are cool.❤
Salivating from viewing this. Just planted my dill and can't wait for it to grow!
I will be doing this! Sounds superb!

My son and I share this account for now.

That’s awesome! I really isn’t that hard and once you’ve tried it a few times you can totally make it your own!
My second time making this fantastic Seafood Chowder
im making this for our supper tonight thank you
I made this today, and I absolutely LOVE the smokiness of it. Why don’t you use onions or garlic in this recipe?
My Art Teacher as a freshman in College was a Mr. Wunderlich, who transferred from SUNY Brockport to Dartmouth (1984). I wonder if you ever took one of his elective Art classes of knew of him?
Awsome recipe thank you. I don’t eat pork and so use Westcoast smoked candied salmon cut very small to trick the bacon taste buds. I add corn n carrots too… 👍😂
That chowder looks delicious. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see your Fishcake recipe.
Omg..I have the ingredients and it’s on the menu!! Thank you for this episode...I’ve made everything so far!
Amazing! Let us know how it turns out! What’s been your favorite recipe so far?
Great recipe, I will try to make it for sure
thank you, very nice job and great video, did you ever try washing the leaks after chopping, or do you think they will loose flavor
OMG! The shot/picture of the bowl of chowder...AMAZING! You make it look all so easy. Yum Yum 👍😍
This chowder recipe is tried and true. So much flavour and youre right - it's not as hard as it looks!
Awesome recipe! I’m gonna try it😊
Your chowder looks amazing ! I use smoked baby clams and clam juice. I do use flour to make a roux with butter and the oil from the clams. The remaining seafood ingredients are only what I can find them fresh here in California. will try leeks instead of spanish onions next time.

Thanks for tuning in all the way from California. Love hearing that! Clams in the chowder is also delicious. Let us know how your version of this recipe turns out!
Looks really tasty but just wondering why you guys didn’t show the cooking pot while cooking? Lol I would have love to seen.
Looks amazing! Thank you for doing the video!
Our pleasure! Give it a try and let us know what you think!
Your recipes have been winners. This seafood chowder (with some $saving cheats) will be a Department “SoupOff”!!!
Do you have a sourdough biscuit recipe??
Duh, I lobe smoked oysters and smoked fish, just never thought to put them in chowder. Thanks for the tip!
Give it a try and let us know why you think!
I make what many, many people have described as "the best seafood chowder ever". The recipe came from my west coast grandmother.

Just found your channel and I have been wanting to make a good chowder. Yours by far looked the best. Can't wait to try
I love chowder and this looks amazing! Where is your restaurant?
Greetings from Ireland! Chowder on the menu this week in our house so I cannot wait to get cracking! New Subscriber… delighted I found you guys and looking forward to watching your Recipes! 👍🏻
Biscuits made to enjoy with the Seafood Chowder...perfection! Spoke with my sister in NS about your video and surprise...she knew you from Acadia Maple, as she worked the Pancake Breakfasts for several years (during the time you were headed to France). I thought I was surprising her and low and behold it was the other way around! Love your videos, looking forward to the next one
That is awesome! Such a small world. Tell her I say hi! Thanks for trying the recipe and for watching the videos. Lots more great recipes to come!
I was taught to use a can of cream of mushroom soup at the end with a cup of cream. Weird but really good.! Looking forward to trying smoked oysters and haddock. Thanks for sharing 😉
We haven't heard about the can of mushroom soup! Interesting. Little known fact that one of Renee's guilty pleasures is Campbell's cream of mushroom!
@@TheCanteenCooks Girl after my own heart! Oh Focaccia bread was sooo good! ❤️
yes .gotta try . Will you consider doing Rappie Pie ?
I will always order chowder if its on a menu when I go out to eat. The Canteen's is my absolute favourite!! Thanks for this I will be trying your recipe for sure!!!
🙏🙏 We think that you’ll enjoy this recipe. It’s very similar to the version at The Canteen! 😁
My wife makes excellent chowder! I’m spoiled.
I made this for my family this evening. My dad said it was delicious and that it was the best seafood chowder he's ever had. Thanks so much for the recipe. Happy New Year (2022) from Fredericton!
Looks delicious. Watching from the UK and looking for the most appealing chowder recipe. Yours wins! Forgotten how lovely smoked oysters are.
Thanks for tuning in from across the pond! We find that smoked oysters really make this chowder unique. Give it a try and let us know what you think! 😀
This chowder looks awesome! I've never had one before but it looks extremely delicious and I'd love to give it a try! Thank you for the inspiration!
Thanks Anadi! Let us know if you give it a try!
I have tried this reciepe ,
I guaretee it is as good as advertised .
Nothing left out .
Many times i have tried tube reciepes. .
People tend to leave something out , deliberately . They make a vid to make a vid. to. get money , but they usually leave something out , because they dont want anyone elses recipe to be better than thiers .

LOOKS DELICIOUS
Looks amazing. Did you add all the water and potatoes into the dish x
I thought I was the only one who made chowder for Xmas, looks great!
I usually go with lobster, shrimp, haddock and scallop. Oops I do like carrots sorry, my family likes it a bit little hardy not too much though.
I am a fan of the lemon and dill, the family’s not so much.
Oh I like a dash of Worcestershire sauce.
I was told that halibut would be a good fish, on the fence?
Thanks for the content first time I’ve had the opportunity to view can’t wait to visit your business.
Caper in the city
I just found your video and was intrigued by using the smoked oysters and smoked halibut. Could you use Kippered Herring and oil instead of the oysters? I have several tins that I would like to use in something besides just eating them on crackers or toast.
So, here in this NS home, seafood chowder includes, Potatoes, Carrots, Celery, White Onion, Chicken soup base, Coffee cream, Blend, Bacon, Scallops, Haddock, Lobster, Baby Shrimp, Clams, Salmon.. butter & garlic butter! Making one today, Christmas in July! ❤
And SALT!!! lol
I love a good traditional lobster chowder but, my signature chowder is spicy chowder with diced tomatoes! I love a good heavy cream in my chowder too!
Sounds great! Tomato based chowder is also amazing. Thanks for watching!
Sorry, I can never find the recipe which is in the description but I can't find it. Looks amazing.
Looks great - I want a bowl for myself! The smoked oysters - brilliant addition, can't wait to try it, fall at the latest. 100 degrees temps currently so, watermelon cold :)
I’ll be making this tomorrow… it’s my first time making a seafood chowder.. my boyfriend says “you gotta put velveeta in it”. So I’m a lil nervous. I hope he likes it without the cheese. 🤞🏼
I make my sea food chowder with clams, shrimp, white fish, potatoes, onions, clan juice, and a number of things. I am a flat lander. I amazed East Coasters how good I made my sea food chowder!! They thought my Wife ,a East Coaster made it!! LOL
I would appreciate you sharing what casserole pot you use.
From one Chef to another, I truly enjoy your content. It’s very well-made, with easy step-by-step instructions for people to understand. Thanks so much!! One thing is, I just stumbled along to your channel and noticed that you haven't made any content in a while, will you be making more in the future? P.S. you both deserve a cooking show, if you haven't already been signed by a network, they should.
OMG this looks Amazing,,, I wish i could find Smoked Haddock , I grew uop eating smoke everything back in the da, fr NL , where then everything was Plantiful n fishermen would hand u fresh catch off the day,, Im differently gonna try this , praying i can find some Smoke Haddock here is Alberta is like trying to find Attlantis,, hehe,,, looks Delicoius,, tu for sharing,,
I have never made a chowder. But this looks so freakin great!!!! I'm getting up in the morning and try this recipe. Big storms coming in the evening so I'm gonna do this beforehand. Ty so much.
That’s a great plan! Nothing more comforting than a steaming bowl of seafood chowder!
Hello! I have some questions!
Can I replace potato water with stock and flour (roux) even though it won’t be GF anymore?
Should I parboil the potato’s before going into the chowder pot? Or can they cook all the way in the chowder?
For my own understanding to simplify it’s fats -> mirepoix -> potato’s and stock/water -> milk and or cream -> white fish -> garnish
Chez Fougere sounds like a tasty place!!
