Notes

Use fresh thyme for the best flavor. Don’t skip seasoning each layer, as it builds depth in taste. Let the chowder rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld. For an extra kick, consider adding smoked paprika to the broth. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat gently on the stovetop. Freezing is not recommended due to the cream. If you want to freeze, omit the cream before freezing and add it during reheating for best results.
