About Bahamian conch chowder

Bahamian Conch Chowder is a flavorful seafood dish rooted in the vibrant cuisine of the Bahamas. This hearty stew traditionally features tender conch meat, complemented by a medley of vegetables like onions, bell peppers, carrots, and tomatoes. Aromatic herbs and spices, such as thyme and hot peppers, provide a signature Caribbean kick. Often thickened with flour or potatoes, the chowder’s base is typically a savory broth or tomato sauce. Rich in protein from the conch and loaded with fiber and nutrients from the vegetables, it’s a nutritious choice. However, depending on preparation, it can be high in sodium or fats from added oils or butter. For a healthier version, avoid heavy creams and go light on salt. A cherished staple in Bahamian cuisine, it offers a taste of island tradition while showcasing key elements of a balanced meal.
