I find fat free evaporated milk tastes like bilge water.
A friend gave me this chowder recipe, he says it's good...but,...never tried it.


1 or 2 slices (or more) cooked bacon, cut up into bits
Sweet onion, enough to make about 2 ounces chopped
1 clove garlic 1/2 teaspoon (3g) fresh minced thyme or 1/4 teaspoon dried
1 baking potato, enough to make about 1 cup (240g) diced
2 cups fish stock or clam juice
Salt
White pepper
1 cup milk (thickened with flour, or starch, if you wish)
12 ounces cod or haddock fillet
1 tablespoon (15g) chopped flat-leaf parsley
