Total Time: 40 minutes
Serves: 6
1 lb. Yukon Gold Potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 Tbs. salt
3 slices Henry's Market Uncured Bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces (substitute turkey or vegetarian bacon, if desired)
1 medium onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic
2 celery stalks, thinly sliced
3 carrots, peeled and sliced into thin discs
2 bay leaves
1 c. chicken or vegetable broth
2 1/2 c. whole milk or unsweetened soymilk

Garnish with finely chopped chives or dill
Fill a large saucepan 2/3 full of water and bring to a boil. Add one tablespoon salt and the potatoes. Boil until just fork tender, about 8 to10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In the same saucepan, cook the bacon until crisp. TIP: If using turkey or vegetarian bacon, add a little oil to the pan. Remove bacon and drain on a paper towels. Remove all but two tablespoons of the bacon fat from the pan. Add onions, garlic, celery, carrots and bay leaves over medium heat for about 6 minutes, until the onions are soft.
Add broth, milk, cream, dill and thyme. Bring to a bowl, and then turn down to a simmer. Add potatoes, corn, bacon and salmon. Season with salt and lots of black pepper. Simmer 3 to 5 minutes, until salmon is heated through. Remove bay leaves and serve garnished with fresh chives or dill.
