To prepare this chowder, simply open the container and transfer the contents to a saucepan. Heat it gently over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until it is thoroughly warmed through. Avoid boiling, as this can affect the texture of the seafood and the creaminess of the base. Alternatively, you can heat it in a microwave-safe bowl, covered, on medium power, stirring halfway through, until hot. Serve immediately in bowls.
