The first days of autumn have arrived on Prince Edward Island. No September seasonal hurricanes (fingers are crossed) but chill winds caress HG/BSK’s oceanfront home. Leaves will begin turning later in the month or early October making the Island ablaze with glorious color. As they pronounce it here and in New England, “Chowda” is a leading comfort food in brisk weather. BSK made a creative, super tasty “Chowda” last night. BSK borrowed an element from the New England version (skim milk instead of cream). BSK simmered sliced sea scallops, potatoes, corn kernels, chopped onions,and garlic; capers,herbs in a pot of clam broth, white wine and a smidgen of skim milk. Seasoned with hot sauce, salt and pepper, this fabulous dish was sea and farm goodness in a bowl.
