Categories     Healthy Corn Chowder Recipes

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 ears corn, husked
2 strips bacon, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups diced onion
1 cup diced celery
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
⅓ cup white whole-wheat flour
3 (6.5 ounce) cans chopped clams, drained, juices reserved
2 cups clam juice
4 cups diced waxy potatoes, such as yellow or red
2 cups whole milk
½ teaspoon ground pepper
⅛ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Cut kernels from corn cobs. Reserve the cobs.
  • Add the corn kernels and bacon to a large pot. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is crisp and the corn starts to brown, about 6 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon and corn to a small bowl.
  • Add butter, onion, celery, garlic, thyme and bay leaf to the pot. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in juices from the cans, clam juice and the reserved corncobs. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Add potatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer; cover and cook until the potatoes are tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Discard the corncobs, thyme sprigs and bay leaf.
  • Stir in clams, milk, pepper and salt. Add half of the reserved bacon and corn. Cook, stirring, until hot, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve topped with the remaining bacon and corn.

CLAM AND CORN CHOWDER



Clam and Corn Chowder image

Provided by Food Network

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 onion, diced
1 carrot, peeled and diced
1 celery rib, washed and diced
4 ears corn, husked and kernels removed
6 baby red new potatoes, unpeeled, washed and diced
1 quart clam juice
1 cup dry white wine
3 1/2 pounds Littleneck clams, Manila clams or Cockles in the shell
1 Italian Roma tomato, cored, seeded and diced
1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded and diced
1 jalapeno chile, stemmed, seeded, if desired
1 bunch cilantro, leaves only, chopped
Juice of 1 lime
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Salt to taste

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large stockpot over moderate heat. Saute the onions for 10 minutes. Add the carrots, celery, corn and potatoes and saute 2 minutes longer. Pour in the clam juice. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring the white wine to a boil in a large saucepan and reduce by one-third. Add the clams, cover and steam, shaking the pan occasionally, until the clams open up, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove and discard any that do not open. Remove the cover and let the clams cool in the pot. When cool enough to handle, separate the meat from the shells, reserving the juice, and chop the clams. Set aside. Reserve the cooking liquid.
  • Add the tomato, red pepper and jalapeno to the soup pot and cook over low heat an additional 10 minutes. Strain the reserved cooking juices and clam juice through a fine kitchen towel or coffee filter into the soup. Add the chopped clams and cook 10 more minutes. Stir in the cilantro, lime juice and pepper. Taste for salt, since the clams may be salty, and serve steaming hot.

CORN AND CLAM CHOWDER



Corn And Clam Chowder image

Provided by Craig Claiborne And Pierre Franey

Categories     soups and stews, appetizer

Time 50m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 ears shucked fresh corn on the cob, or 5 cups canned, well-drained or frozen whole-kernel corn
60 littleneck clams, the smaller the better
1 large carrot, about 5 ounces, trimmed and scraped
2 ribs celery, trimmed
1 onion, about 1/2 pound
6 sprigs fresh thyme, finely chopped, or 1/2 teaspoon dried
2 cups dry white wine
8 cups rich chicken broth, preferably homemade, although canned broth may be used
5 cups heavy cream
Salt to taste, if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
3 tablespoons butter
2 small hot red or green peppers, stems removed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • If fresh corn on the cob is used, cut each ear crosswise into thirds. Set aside.
  • Rinse the clams well and put them in a kettle.
  • Cut the carrot lengthwise in half. Cut each half crosswise into thin slices. There should be about one cup. Add this to the clams.
  • Coarsely chop the celery. There should be about one cup. Add this to the clams.
  • Coarsely chop the onion. There should be about one and one-half cups. Add the onion, thyme and wine to the clams.
  • Put the kettle over high heat and cover closely with a lid. Bring to the boil and cook until the clams open, about three minutes.
  • Line another kettle with a sieve and line the sieve with cheesecloth. Or use a sieve of the sort known in French kitchens as a chinois.
  • Pour the clams, vegetables and liquid into the sieve. There should be about two and one-half cups of liquid. Add the chicken broth to the clam liquid and bring to the boil.
  • Meanwhile, remove the meat from the clams and set aside. Unless the meat pieces are small, cut the pieces in half. Discard the shells.
  • Add the strained vegetables to the clam and chicken broth. If corn on the cob is used, add it to the kettle and cook about five minutes and add four cups of the cream. Bring to the boil. Add salt and pepper and let simmer about 20 minutes.
  • If corn on the cob has been used, remove the pieces of corn from the kettle, using a pair of tongs. When the pieces of corn are cool enough to handle, cut the kernels from the cobs. There should be about five cups. Add this or the canned or frozen corn to the kettle. Pour the mixture, one portion at a time, into the container of a food processor or, preferably, an electric blender and blend. Combine the blended soup in a kettle and add one tablespoon of the lime juice, salt and pepper. There should be about 16 cups of soup. Add the meat from the clams.
  • Bring the soup to the boil and swirl in the butter.
  • Chop the peppers coarsely. There should be about three tablespoons. Put the peppers in the container of an electric blender. Add the remaining lime juice, olive oil, cilantro, salt and pepper. Blend as finely as possible. This is to be used as a garnish for the soup.
  • Whip the remaining one cup of cream and add the blended pepper and lime juice mixture. Blend well.
  • Serve the hot soup in 12 individual bowls and top each serving with an equal portion of the whipped cream mixture.

CRAB AND CORN CHOWDER

I started cooking at a local restaurant when I was 16 years old. This creamy chowder was one of the soups we made. The recipe had been passed from cook to cook- but had never been written down, until now!

Provided by Taste of Home

Categories     Lunch

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings (1-1/2 quarts).

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 medium onion, chopped
5 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
3-1/2 cups milk
4 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
2 cans (6 ounces each) crabmeat, drained
2 medium potatoes, diced
1 small green peppeer, chopped
1 celery rib, chopped
1 can (8-1/4 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
1 cup half-and-half cream
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon white pepper

Steps:

Tips:

  • Fresh is best: Use fresh clams whenever possible. Fresh clams will have a briny, slightly sweet flavor, while frozen clams can be more bland.
  • Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are a good choice for chowder because they hold their shape well and don't get mushy. You can also use Yukon Gold potatoes or red potatoes.
  • Don't overcook the clams: Clams are delicate and can easily overcook. Cook them just until they are opaque, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Use a good quality clam juice: Clam juice is an important ingredient in chowder, so it's important to use a good quality brand. Look for clam juice that is clear and free of sediment.
  • Season to taste: Chowder should be flavorful and well-seasoned. Taste the chowder before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.

Conclusion:

Buttermilk clam n' corn chowder is a delicious and hearty soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its creamy texture, briny flavor, and tender vegetables, this chowder is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
