Oyster Chowder

I grew up on Oyster "stew". I like to "create" new things and this is what I came up with. I fix this for myself only and so I made it how I like it, and this is the result. Hope you like it.

    This recipe was very very good. We doubled the recipe and also added some old bay seasoning as well. We will make this again but next time I think I will subsitute the oysters for crab meat.

    I do not care for oysters, but my wife loves anthing made with oysters. I made this as a surprise for her when she came home after a long day at work. She now thinks I am a genius. I did not have whole canned cron so I used 1/2 can of Delmonte white crushed corn. DW took th remaining chowder to work to show co-workers how good it was.

    This chowder has that oyster stew taste! I used an 8 oz. can of oysters (Orleans brand). I added 1 clove of garlic with the onions and potatoes plus 1/4 teaspoon each of salt, pepper and old bay seasoning. I used 1 ear of silver queen corn (cut off the cob)because that was all I had on hand. Used 1/4 cup water since I did't have corn juice. Mine turned out alittle thick for my liking, so I added about 1/4 cup extra milk. My only complaint was I did't double the recipe! Thanks for posting.
