My sister made this smoked salmon chowder when we were camping in a rustic cabin on the Strait of Juan de Fuca that runs between Vancouver Island and Washington's Olympic Peninsula. It's very, very warming and delicious.

  1. In a large stockpot over medium-high heat, combine butter, olive oil, onion, garlic, and celery. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until onions are transparent. Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir well to make a dry roux. Gradually add chicken broth and stir until slightly thickened. Stir in the potatoes, dill, tarragon, thyme, and paprika. Reduce the heat to medium, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
