    A corn chowder recipe. When I made it, I modified some other soup recipes and just winged it. This gives you the general idea of how I did it:

    I didn't use red peppers, but they look great!

      On the knife thing. I was watching a friend cut up a cooked duck with a very sharp knife and she was mashing the heck out of the duck, When you cut, you slice. Works much better that way.

      Eric, don't use dish soap to wash your fruit and veggies. I read somewhere doing that can add more chemicals to your food. Rick Bayless recommended using some white vinegar in a spray bottle.

      I have a Lansky knife sharpening system that I really like. It contains 5 stones of increasingly finer grit with coarse used to establish the grind angle all the way up to ultra fine for polishing the edge. When you are done the edge has a mirror finish and you could shave with it. You can also vary the angle of the edge depending on the intended purpose of the knife - kitchen knife vs. a utility type knife. I highly recommend it.
