LOBSTER CORN CHOWDER
Steps:
- Remove the meat from the shells of the lobsters. Cut the meat into large cubes and place them in a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Reserve the shells and all the juices that collect. Cut the corn kernels from the cobs and set aside, reserving the cobs separately.
- For the stock, melt the butter in a stockpot or Dutch oven large enough to hold all the lobster shells and corncobs. Add the onion and cook over medium-low heat for 7 minutes, until translucent but not browned, stirring occasionally. Add the sherry and paprika and cook for 1 minute. Add the milk, cream, wine, lobster shells and their juices, and corn cobs and bring to a simmer. Partially cover the pot and simmer the stock over the lowest heat for 30 minutes. (I move the pot halfway off the heat.)
- Meanwhile, in another stockpot or Dutch oven, heat the oil and cook the bacon for 4 to 5 minutes over medium-low heat, until browned and crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and reserve. Add the potatoes, onions, celery, corn kernels, salt, and pepper to the same pot and saute for 5 minutes. When the stock is ready, remove the largest pieces of lobster shell and the corn cobs with tongs and discard. Place a strainer over the soup pot and carefully pour the stock into the pot with the potatoes and corn. Simmer over low heat for 15 minutes, until the potatoes are tender. Add the cooked lobster, the chives and the sherry and season to taste. Heat gently and serve hot with a garnish of crisp bacon.

Add the corn, the diced vegetables and the seasoning and saute until the vegetables are soft but not browned. Add the chicken stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and add the reserved corn cobs. Cook 40 to 45 minutes, remove the cobs and stir in the grated cheese. Serve immediately.;

CORN AND CHEDDAR CHEESE CHOWDER
A wonderful, hearty soup, recommended for cold winter nights. This recipe came from one of my favorite cookbooks, The Vegetarian Epicure. In my opinion, using milk instead of cream does not alter the quality (it's how I have always made it). I usually double the recipe for a larger amount. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Mix first 4 ingredients in small bowl.

Sprinkle 1/3 of cheese mixture evenly over half of pastry; fold plain half of pastry over cheese, forming 10x9-inch rectangle; press to adhere. Repeat 2 more times, rolling to 18x10-inch rectangle, sprinkling with 1/3 of cheese mixture, and folding. Roll out pastry again to 18x10-inch rectangle. Transfer to unlined baking sheet. Chill 30 minutes.
- Position 1 rack in top third and 1 rack in bottom third of oven; preheat to 425°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Cut pastry crosswise in half, forming two 10x9-inch rectangles.

Twist each strip a few times and place on prepared baking sheets, spacing 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch apart, dabbing ends lightly with water and pressing to adhere to parchment.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients. Fresh corn and lobster will give your chowder the best flavor. If you can't find fresh corn, you can use frozen corn, but be sure to thaw it before using.
- Don't overcook the lobster. Lobster is a delicate seafood, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook it just until it's opaque and cooked through.
- Use a good quality cheddar cheese. The cheddar cheese is a key ingredient in this chowder, so it's important to use a good quality cheese. Look for a sharp cheddar cheese that melts well.
- Make the Vermont cheddar cheese twists ahead of time. The Vermont cheddar cheese twists can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
- Serve the chowder immediately. Corn and lobster chowder is best served immediately after it's made. However, it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
