Just made this and it was fantastic! I altered it in the following ways:
1) used a can of corn instead of frozen, and used the drained liquid plus water to make the chicken broth with Better than Bouillon;
2) used fresh salmon instead of smoked, sitting two large (pinbones removed) pieces on top of the soup and pushing them down into it, then peeling off and removing the skin after the fish was cooked;
3) omitted milk altogether, because my husband is lactose intolerant;
4) added cracked pepper. YUM!

Recipe made enough for four large bowls.

Robert- I am glad you enjoyed the recipe. It is really good. Did you use smoked salmon or fresh salmon?

Mangochild- The recipes are very applicable to other regions. The seasons and some of the ingredients may be slightly different, but it wouldn’t be difficult to adjust.

Donna - This recipe was really, really good - especially with our corn from Riverbend/Pleasant Hill Farm. Her corn is sooooo good.

This looks amazing! I wish I’d had that book a week ago when I cooked up some salmon and ended up with too much!

Even though I am not in the northwest, I am interesting in looking at that book - many of the ideas on seasonality could be transferred to the northeast, I’m sure. And the idea that more and more is being written on the local life makes me excited - the more resources and knowledge we have, the more this becomes feasible for more and more people to one degree or another.
