Ooh Yote that sounds awesome! I can imagine how delicious this would be with crawdad tails and other bits of seafood! I'm going to have to try that [

No real recipe for the potato soup. Just added onion and garlic pieces to the water, poached the perch a few at a time to be able to get the meat off the bones, fish out, potato pieces in, added milk, added cream.
Then as I sauteed the various ingredients in TD's recipe (in the bacon fat) I chucked them in too--onion, celery, mushrooms, the bacon pieces themselves. Added more milk and cream.
In the end I used a bit of cornstarch and milk to thicken the chowder, too, I like the flavor of that thickening method better than the flour method.
