Northwest Smoked Salmon Chowder

Clam chowder comes in two varieties: New England and Manhattan. But what about the West Coast? Don't they deserve chowder, too? Obviously. And it comes in the form of this creamy, tangy, smoky chowder filled with hot smoked salmon, capers, cream cheese, and leeks. Bonus points if you eat it in a sourdough bread bowl.
