Tips:

  • Choose the right type of corn. Fresh corn on the cob is best, but you can also use frozen or canned corn. If using frozen corn, thaw it before cooking. If using canned corn, drain and rinse it well.
  • Use good-quality smoked sausage. The type of smoked sausage you use will greatly affect the flavor of the chowder. Look for a sausage that is flavorful and has a good smoky flavor. Kielbasa or andouille sausage are both good options.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables. The vegetables in the chowder should be tender but still have a bit of a bite to them. Overcooked vegetables will become mushy and lose their flavor.
  • Season the chowder to taste. The amount of salt and pepper you add will depend on your personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Serve the chowder with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include sour cream, shredded cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions.
