Here is a recipe from "Eat St.," the companion cookbook to the Food Network Canada show of the same name.
Pacific Rim Chowder
Red Fish Blue Fish, owned by Kunal Ghose and Simon Sobolewski, is located in Victoria's Inner Harbour.
"So local are their ingredients, they could almost jump right out of the water at the end of the dock. These guys take sustainability so seriously that their kitchen and servery is in a recycled shipping container," Cunningham writes in the introduction to the recipe.
"Their Pacific Rim Chowder is simply the best soup we've ever had from a food truck — or a shipping container. Locals consider this sophisticated twist on good ol' clam chowder ambrosia from the sea."
1 can (341 ml/12 oz) corn kernels
30 ml (2 tbsp) canola/olive oil blend
375 ml (1 1/2 cups) finely chopped onions
