This year’s king salmon season didn’t go so well for our local fishermen. My grandpa (above) went out with his brother-in-law and caught a few king salmon but nothing like previous years. So, this year my grandpa purchased some Baker Lake king salmon from our local fish company, which our tribe owns. This week, he got up when the sun came up to BBQ the king salmon before it got too hot outside. (We are having record heat here in Western Washington!)
There were a few leftover pieces of BBQ salmon so I decided to make a family favorite: Salmon Chowder.
Does your family like salmon chowder? It is such an easy soup to recreate.

About Tasteful Selections Potatoes
With small sizes and proprietary flavors, each variety of Tasteful Selections potatoes has been tested to assure that it meets the highest standards for quality, taste, texture and culinary experience. Reimagine comfort food with our prewashed, fast cooking potatoes that don’t need any peeling. For this recipe I used Ruby Sensations potatoes.
Salmon is one of my husband’s favorite foods. But since I don’t eat it, I have no idea to prepare it at all. I think he would love this recipe and it’s easy enough for me to prepare. Thanks for sharing, I’ll try to make it very soon.
You can add uncooked salmon to this too – you just need to add it sooner so it cooks through. Maybe let it cook for 15-20 min.
What a great idea! I love Salmon…just bought some tonight!
