Smoked Salmon Chowder

Salmon is a major industry in Alaska, so it's no wonder many innovative salmon recipes originated in the state. Chowders, of course, have been around for centuries. Chowder making in the United States began in New England. English and French immigrants brought chowder with them to the New World more than 250 years ago and seafood chowders remain a popular dish on both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts.

This creamy, savory chowder has traditional ingredients and also includes white wine for added depth of flavor. Chowders are especially comforting during the cold fall and winter months.
