So, what to do with leftover lobster, crab, shrimp, clams and crawdad meat? This is what I asked of my 7 year old students. So, I charged them with creating a special dish for their parents this evening. Truthfully, I thought they'd make a simple bagel spread. Boy was I wrong.

Your creamy chowder was delicious kiddos! Excelent work! And, that fresh crispy garlic French bread for dipping took it over the top! I loved this dish! So did your parents!

Steps

45 Minutes

1

Various cold seafoods pictured.
2

Steamed whole crawdads pictured.
3

Pull all of your crab, lobster, crawdads, clams and shrimp meat from shells and reserve all shells.
4

Create your seafood stock by boiling shells, wine and bay leaves for 15 minutes on high. Make enough for 8 cups. You may not need all stock depending upon how thick or thin you'll want your chowder. Strain your stock twice in a fine mesh strainer or cheese cloth
5

At the same time, parboil your potatoes for 7 to 10 minutes to soften them before adding to your chowder. It's a real time saver. Small chop.
6

Again, at the same time in a seperate pan, sauté your onions and celery in butter until translucent. About 2 to 3 minutes. Then, add flour and mix well until dissolved.
7

Simmer chowder for 30 minutes. Stir regularly.
8

Add your seafood to your chowder in the last 5 minutes of simmering.
9

Serve chowder piping hot with crispy warm French bread for dipping and seasoned croutons. Also, Sherry to drizzle over the top if desired.
10

Or, crispy garlic crustinins.
11

Enjoy!
