CORN CHOWDER I



Corn Chowder I image

Warm and soothing corn chowder with the salty bite of crisp bacon. This warms up well in the microwave and even tastes better a day old. I also freeze it in small batches. This makes a big pot of chowder but, it can easily be cut in half.

1 onion, chopped
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
8 cups milk
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
3 (14.75 ounce) cans creamed corn

Tips:

  • Select the freshest corn possible: The fresher the corn, the sweeter and more flavorful the chowder will be. If you can, use corn that was picked within the last 24 hours.
  • Use a variety of corn: Don't just use one type of corn. Instead, try using a mix of different colors and varieties, such as white, yellow, and blue corn. This will give your chowder a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Roast the corn before adding it to the chowder: Roasting the corn will bring out its natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast the corn in a hot oven, on a grill, or even in a cast iron skillet.
  • Use a flavorful broth: The broth is the base of the chowder, so it's important to use a broth that has a lot of flavor. You can use chicken broth, vegetable broth, or even a combination of the two.
  • Add plenty of vegetables: Vegetables add flavor, texture, and nutrients to the chowder. Some good vegetables to add include onions, celery, carrots, potatoes, and leeks.
  • Season the chowder to taste: Don't be afraid to season the chowder to taste. You can add salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and other spices to taste.
  • Serve the chowder hot: Corn chowder is best served hot. You can ladle it into bowls and serve it immediately, or you can keep it warm in a slow cooker until you're ready to serve.

Conclusion:

Corn chowder is a delicious and hearty soup that's perfect for a cold day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a corn chowder that your family and friends will love. So what are you waiting for? Give corn chowder a try today!
