Chef's Notes

Recipe Source: Taste of Home


While melting cheese in the chowder, cook it gradually over low heat. High heat can cause the cheese to become stringy or separate.

Allow the chowder to simmer gently after adding all the ingredients. This allows the flavors to meld and develop over time.

There is no need to add salt to the soup since ham and bacon are salty. Add extra salt after tasting the soup.
