Instructions

1. Cook the salt pork or bacon with the water over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the water evaporates and the pork browns and crisps in spots, about 8 minutes.
2. Add the onion and celery, season lightly with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens but does not brown, about 4 more minutes.
3. Add the flour and stir until no dry pockets remain.
4. Stir in the clam juice, then the milk.
5. Add the potatoes and bay leaf and bring to a simmer.
6. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are fully tender, about 15 minutes.
7. Stir in the fish and simmer until just cooked through, about 3 minutes.
8. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
9. Serve right away, topped with minced fresh herbs, hot sauce and crackers.
