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.

Time 1h

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds potatoes - peeled and cubed
1 pound bacon
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
¼ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 dash paprika

Steps:

  • Boil potatoes in salted water until soft. Drain. Mash half of the potatoes and set aside.
  • Fry the bacon until very crisp. Crumple the bacon and set aside.
  • Fry the onion inn the bacon grease until translucent and soft.
  • Dump the cooked onions into a large stockpot. Add the flour and heat until the mixture is bubbly and the flour is well dissolved. Add the milk and bring to a boil over medium-low heat, stirring frequently. You need to watch your pot pretty carefully while bringing to a boil and heating. The bottom tends to easily scorch. Once boiling add the salt, pepper, bacon, corn and all the potatoes. (If desired reserve some of the bacon for the garnish.)
  • Heat soup until hot. Serve garnished with a dash of paprika, a sprinkling of cheddar cheese and some crumbled bacon.

I followed the recipe exactly and my corn chowder turned out bland. I had to add a lot of salt and pepper to make it taste good.
