Buttermilk Salmon Chowder

"This is based on a South Beach Diet cookbook recipe. The introduction states, "Yogurt and buttermilk add creaminess to this chunky chowder. Dill, bay leaf, and tarragon lend the perfect flavor accents." Additionally, Dr. Oz, in his You, the Owner's Manual book, states that "The best fish (those with the least mercury and PCBs [polychlorinated biphenl]) are wild, line-caught salmon (almost all canned salmon is wild, healthful salmon), mahi mahi, catfish, flounder (sole), tilapia, and whitefish.""
