6. Add milk and cook until soup is heated through, and potatoes are tender.

7. Top with butter, and serve.

Author's Notes:
This chowder is a variation on a family recipe from an old roommate of
mine. (She makes it without the sausage, and with more water). It goes very
well with most seafood. I am especially fond of it served with crab cakes.

Difficulty : easy.
Precision : approximate measurement OK.
