I just made this. My hubby said, "Put this on Just A Pinch--you'll win a blue ribbon!" :) I informed him that I got it from there . . . it's amazing! We think the creamy taste of it is so buttery and good that we could make a fish chowder--just follow the recipe, only put fish in it instead of ham. It is wonderful! Thanks for sharing!
