The Chowder Pot

Choose a pot that's sized appropriately for the recipe (add together the liquid ingredients and double the sum, eg.
6 C water = 12 C pot size or at least 3 quarts (liters)).

A chowder pot should also have a heavy bottom that distributes heat evenly to prevent scorching of thick milky contents.

My preference is either stainless steel or cast iron, especially for soup and chowder. If I were going to buy just one soup pot it would be the Farberware Classic 4-Quart Saucepotchowder pot. The 4 quart size works for most recipes, is easy to store and the substantial bottom provides a sturdy, even base that is very forgiving if I forget something on the stove.

A 6-Quart model is equally well loved and would be my first choice if my family were bigger.
