LOWFAT CREAMY POTATO CORN CHOWDER
While reading through some soup recipes online one day, I came across this one and realized that I actually had all the ingredients on hand. Since the weather outside was awful, I whipped up a batch, hoping to thaw out my roommate when she got home from class. She loved it and so has everyone else I've made it for. It never seemed to me that there was enough water to cook the potatoes, corn, and onion, but trust me, there is! Great with bacon or ham, and some cheddar cheese if desired.

CREAMY CORN AND POBLANO SOUP
This is another creamy corn dish that has no cream in it - in fact, it has no dairy at all. I simmer the corn cobs to make the stock. When the corn is sweet, so is the soup, and I love the contrast of the sweet, creamy potage against the spicy roasted peppers.

Steps:
- Take the corn off the cobs. You should have about 5 cups kernels. Set aside 1 cup of the kernels.
- Place the corn cobs in a large soup pot and add the water. Make sure they are covered or at least floating in the water; you can break them in half if they are very large. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, partly cover and simmer 30 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Remove and discard the cobs. Line a strainer with cheesecloth and set it over a bowl. Strain the broth and measure out 5 cups. Freeze any leftover broth.
- Heat the oil over medium heat in a heavy soup pot and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until it is tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds, and then add the 4 cups of corn kernels and salt to taste. Cook, stirring often, for 4 to 5 minutes, until the corn is just tender. Add the corn broth and bring to a simmer. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile roast the chilies, either directly over a gas flame or under a broiler, turning often until they are uniformly charred. Transfer to a plastic bag and seal, or transfer to a bowl and cover tightly. Allow the peppers to cool, then remove the charred skin, rinse and past dry. Remove the seeds and veins (I recommend that you wear plastic gloves for this) and cut in thin strips or dice.
- Steam the kernels set aside for the garnish for 5 minutes, until tender. Set aside.
- Working in batches, purée the soup in a blender, taking care to remove the insert from the top and cover tightly with a kitchen towel to avoid splashes. Return to the heat, taste and adjust salt, and heat through.
- Ladle the soup into bowls. Combine the steamed corn kernels and diced chilies and place a spoonful in the middle of each bowl of soup. Garnish with a sprinkling of cilantro or chives if desired, and serve.

Tips:
- Use a variety of potatoes. Different types of potatoes have different flavors and textures, so using a mix can create a more complex and interesting soup. Yukon Gold, red potatoes, and russet potatoes are all good choices.
- Don't overcook the potatoes. Overcooked potatoes will become mushy and lose their flavor. Cook them until they are just tender, about 15-20 minutes.
- Use fresh corn. Fresh corn has a sweeter and more flavorful taste than frozen or canned corn. If you don't have fresh corn on hand, you can use frozen or canned corn, but be sure to drain it well before adding it to the soup.
- Add some vegetables. Vegetables like carrots, celery, and onions can add flavor and texture to the soup. You can also add other vegetables that you like, such as broccoli, cauliflower, or peas.
- Use a flavorful broth. The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a flavorful one. Chicken broth or vegetable broth are both good choices. You can also use a combination of the two.
- Season the soup to taste. Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for any soup, but you can also add other spices and herbs to taste. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and thyme.
- Serve the soup with a garnish. A garnish can add a pop of color and flavor to the soup. Some good options include fresh herbs, grated Parmesan cheese, or a dollop of sour cream.
Conclusion:
Creamy potato and corn soup is a delicious and comforting soup that is perfect for a cold night. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a creamy potato and corn soup that is sure to please everyone at the table.
