Steps:
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions and celery; cook until just slightly golden. Stir in carrots and garlic; cook until garlic is slightly golden.
- Meanwhile, bring water to a boil over high heat. Stir in bouillon, and reduce heat to medium. When bouillon cubes have dissolved, add corn and the vegetables from the skillet. Cook until vegetables are tender. Add water, if necessary. Reduce heat to low, and pour in 1 cup soy milk. Stir soup well, then stir in remaining 1 cup soy milk. Quickly whisk in flour. Stir in parsley, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until chowder thickens, about 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:
- Set a medium soup pot over low heat. Add the olive oil and the onion. Sweat the onion - cook it low and slow - until tender and translucent, 10-12 minutes.
- Increase the heat to medium-low and add the flour, dry mustard, smoked paprika, turmeric, and salt. Cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes.
- Slowly add the vegetable broth and deglaze the pan, stirring up any cooked bits that are stuck to the pan. Add the coconut milk, potatoes, and thyme.
- Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce heat back to low and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat. Remove the thyme stems. Stir in the corn.
- Transfer half of the mixture - about 3 1/2 cups - to the pitcher of a blender. Puree completely and then add back to the soup.
- Return pot to low heat and heat the soup back up. Taste and add more salt and pepper if desired.
- Serve. I like to top individual bowls with a bit of fresh thyme and an extra sprinkle of black pepper, but it's not necessary!
- Keeps well refrigerated for about 3 days.

Steps:
- Add first three ingredients to a large slow cooker, layered in the order they are listed (potatoes on the bottom, then onions and pepper on top).
- Add the next ten ingredients to the blender and blend until smooth. Pour blended mixture over the potatoes, onions, and peppers. Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours.
- About one hour before you wish to serve the chowder, put the remaining two cups almond milk and the raw cashew pieces in your blender. Add several ladles full of the simmering chowder (about 3-4 cups worth), making sure to get lots of potatoes. Blend mixture until completely smooth (for Blendtec, use the "soup" button), then pour back into the slow cooker.
- Add the frozen corn, stir, cover, and turn up to high for one hour. Serve with fresh, crusty bread or rolls!
- NOTES: 1) You may substitute 3 cups of veggie broth and omit the water and vegan bouillon cubes. 2) If you are not concerned about calories or fat content, canned full fat coconut milk makes a wonderful substitute for the almond milk in this recipe (I do not recommend rice milk because it is too thin). 3) For a smaller slow cooker, you may half this recipe.
Tips:
- Use fresh corn on the cob: Fresh corn on the cob adds a natural sweetness and flavor to the chowder. If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn, but the flavor will be slightly less intense.
- Roast the corn before adding it to the chowder: Roasting the corn adds a smoky, caramelized flavor that enhances the flavor of the chowder. You can roast the corn in the oven or on the grill.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for onions, celery, and carrots, but you can add any vegetables that you like. Some other good options include potatoes, bell peppers, and zucchini.
- Use a good quality vegetable broth: The vegetable broth is the base of the chowder, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
- Add some spices and herbs: Spices and herbs can help to enhance the flavor of the chowder. Some good options include thyme, rosemary, sage, and paprika.
- Garnish the chowder with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs add a pop of color and flavor to the chowder. Some good options include cilantro, parsley, and chives.
Conclusion:
This vegan creamy corn chowder is a delicious and hearty soup that is perfect for a cold day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a comforting and satisfying soup, give this vegan creamy corn chowder a try!
