What's Cooking In Key West
A CONCH RECIPE EVERY DAY

CARIBBEAN CHOWDER

One fourth pound salt pork
One large onion
One clove garlic
Four cups diced potatoes
One cup diced celery
Four cups flaked (cooked) fish (grouper for first choice)
Two cups diced langosta
One cup whole shrimp
Milk to desired thickness
Salt, pepper, thyme, oregano to taste

Chop salt pork fine and fry out with sliced onion and garlic. Parboil potato and celery. When tender add to the pork and onion in a large kettle and mash very thoroughly, adding fish flakes and mashing again, until a fairly smooth puree is achieved. Add milk and seasonings—let simmer. Finally add the langosta and shrimp. Butter and evaporated milk may be added if a really rich chowder is desired. Serve with toasted "hard tack", and tossed green salad for a complete meal.
