Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Roast whole ears of corn directly on the rack of the preheated oven until kernels feel tender when pressed, about 25 minutes. Cool briefly, then peel back the husks and cut the kernels off the cobs.
- While the corn is roasting, dice 1/2 the bacon slices. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and saute bacon until evenly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain on paper towels and reserve 1 tablespoon of the fat.
- Add onion and garlic to the pan; saute until transparent, but not brown, about 5 minutes. Add roasted corn kernels, chicken stock, and potatoes; bring to a simmer.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Whisk in flour and stir until the mixture becomes smooth and light golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Let cool.
- Add the cooled flour mixture to the simmering stock, mixing with a whisk. Simmer, stirring often to keep from sticking to the bottom of the pan, until potatoes are tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Add cream and cooked chicken; simmer for 10 minutes.
- Season chowder with salt, pepper, and hot sauce. Ladle into bowls and top with bacon.

FRESH CORN AND CRAB CHOWDER
I adapted this recipe from a camping cookbook, Simple Foods for the Pack, by Claudia Axcell, Diana Cooke and Vikki Kinmont. Originally almost all the ingredients were dehydrated (except for the canned crab) so that you can just throw them all in a ziplock and heat them in camp with water. This is probably a great idea for OAMC, but this recipe is also very fast to put together if you haven't made it ahead. I had it on the table within half an hour from start to finish, and that included time to cook the potatoes in the microwave. This chowder is very rich even without any dairy in it, and obviously you could make it vegetarian without the crab.

FRESH CORN AND SAUSAGE CHOWDER
Though this can easily be made with frozen corn for a delicious meal on a cold night, I think the fresh-off-the-cob-corn tastes so much better! I've made this two summers in a row now. A fairly simple yet hearty recipe, it goes well with homemade biscuits!

FRESH CORN CHOWDER (ADAPTED FROM COOK'S ILLUSTRATED) RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:
- 1. Stand corn on end. Using chef's knife, cut kernels from 4 ears corn (you should have about 3 cups); transfer to medium bowl and set aside. Following illustrations below, grate kernels from remaining 6 ears on large holes of box grater, then firmly scrape any pulp remaining on cobs with back of knife (you should have 2 generous cups kernels and pulp). Transfer to separate bowl and set aside. 2. Sauté salt pork (or quality thick-cut bacon) in Dutch oven or large heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat, turning with tongs and pressing down on pieces to render fat, until cubes are crisp and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Reduce heat to low, stir in butter and onions, cover pot, and cook until softened, about 12 minutes. If using, add the chopped red bell pepper in the last five minutes of cooking the onion. Remove salt pork and reserve. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in flour and cook, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes. Whisking constantly, gradually add stock. Add potatoes, bay leaf, thyme, milk, grated corn and pulp, and reserved salt pork; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until potatoes are almost tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Add reserved corn kernels and heavy cream and return to simmer; simmer until corn kernels are tender yet still slightly crunchy, about 5 minutes longer. Discard bay leaf and salt pork. Stir in parsley, salt, and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Use fresh, sweet corn. This is the key to a flavorful chowder. If you can't find fresh corn, you can use frozen corn, but be sure to thaw it completely before using.
- Don't overcook the corn. You want the corn to be tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooked corn will be mushy and bland.
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and texture to the chowder. Good choices include potatoes, carrots, celery, and onions.
- Season the chowder well. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good choices. You can also add other seasonings to taste, such as cumin, chili powder, or paprika.
- Serve the chowder hot. This is the best way to enjoy its flavor and texture.
Conclusion:
Fresh corn chowder is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a summer meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover corn. With a few simple tips, you can make a chowder that is flavorful, creamy, and satisfying. So next time you have some fresh corn on hand, be sure to try this recipe.
