FISH CHOWDER

This comforting bowl of chowder uses the natural starches found in russet potatoes to provide body, while a touch of heavy cream adds a velvety richness. The result is a naturally gluten-free soup with a light, creamy consistency that lets more delicate flavors like shallots and fish shine through.

2 strips bacon (about 2 ounces), finely chopped
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
5 ounces shallots, minced (about 1 cup)
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 medium russet potatoes, peeled and cubed (about 2 1/2 cups)
2 cups chicken stock
2 cups bottled clam juice

Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Cook bacon in a medium stockpot over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until light golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in butter until melted. Add shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add wine; cook, stirring, until almost no liquid remains, about 45 seconds.
