Mimi's Cafe Corn Chowder image

This comes from a restaurant that is here in Utah, at least that is where I think it is from. I made it the other night, and it was slightly different from most corn chowders because it didn't use bacon. This is a very mild tasting chowder.

Time 1h

Yield 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup butter (1/2 a stick)
6 tablespoons chopped onions
3/4 cup diced celery
2 1/2 cups hot water
2 cups cubed potatoes (1/2 inch pieces)
3 cups frozen corn kernels, thawed
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1 dash white pepper
3 tablespoons flour
1 quart half-and-half cream

Steps:

  • Melt butter in large saucepan. Once melted add celery and onion and saute for 5 minutes (not til brown, just til soft).
  • Add water, potatoes, corn, sugar, salt and pepper, making sure water covers everything, adding more if not covered completely. Cover and simmer until potatoes are tender, usually about 30 minutes.
  • Whisk flour into 1 cup of the half and half and then stir into soup.
  • Add remaining half and half and simmer until soup is thickened to a creamy consistency (usually about 15 minutes).
  • Season to taste with additional salt and pepper if wanted. If the chowder is too thick, add some milk, if it is too thin, simmer for 5-10 minutes more.

This chowder was a total disaster. It curdled and I had to throw it out.

I found the flavor of this chowder to be a bit bland. I would add more salt and pepper next time.

This chowder is a bit too thick for my taste. I would add more broth next time.

I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the bacon. The chowder was still delicious.

This chowder is so hearty and filling. It's perfect for a cold winter day.

I love the addition of bacon in this recipe. It gives the chowder a smoky flavor that takes it over the top.

This chowder is a great way to use up leftover corn. I usually freeze my extra corn and then use it to make this chowder in the winter months.

I'm not a huge fan of corn chowder, but I tried this recipe and was pleasantly surprised. It's not too thick or heavy and the flavors are well-balanced.

This chowder is so easy to make. I love that I can throw everything in the pot and let it simmer away. It's the perfect comfort food for a busy weeknight.

I was a bit skeptical about the addition of dill, but it really works. It gives the chowder a fresh, herby flavor that complements the corn perfectly.

OMG, this corn chowder is a game-changer! It's creamy, flavorful, and packed with veggies. I've made it countless times for potlucks and it's always a hit.
