"Wonderful chowder for a comforting meal! I have made this as written and then with home canned salmon, dried dill and jarred pimentos and whipping cream. Both ways are wonderful. From J&G Podleski."

This is so good -- I used almost twice the amount of salmon and 4 cups of chicken broth, so this made more than enough for us. I also used dried dill (about 1 tsp) and half and half for the cream. So good -- we will be making this again soon! Thanks for sharing!

Fantastic! I didn't have enough salmon, so I added a little shrimp. I'm so glad I made the full batch, it is so flavorful, creamy and luscious. Saved with my favorite recipes.
