Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 small yellow bell pepper, finely chopped
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 large russet potato (about 12 ounces), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
1 cup half-and-half or heavy cream
4 cups fresh corn kernels (from about 6 ears fresh corn) or frozen corn (thawed and drained)

Steps:

  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a medium Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 6 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  • Drain or spoon off all but 3 tablespoons of the fat in the pot. Add the onion, bell pepper and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables just begin to become tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and add the flour, thyme and bay leaves. Stir the flour into the vegetables to make a paste and coat them evenly. Cook a minute or two to get rid of the raw flour flavor. Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook until the vegetables are tender, 15 minutes.
  • Uncover the pot and add the potato, half-and-half and all but 1/2 cup of the corn. Simmer, uncovered, until the potato is very tender but not yet falling apart, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the reserved ½ cup corn and cook, stirring, until warmed through, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Discard the bay leaves from the soup. Puree about 1 cup of the soup in a food processor or blender and stir it back into the soup. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with the cooked bacon and buttered corn kernels.

STOKELY'S CORN CHOWDER



Stokely's Corn Chowder image

I found this recipe in a Stokely's canned vegetable ad in a magazine when I first married. My family loves it. When I took some to a sick friend, she called her MIL to come & try it. She put it in a college fundraiser cookbook. I've also put it in a school fundraiser cookbook, and have had several compliments on it. I can't find the exact sizes of cans specified, but the closest sizes available work just fine.

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.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the soup will taste. Look for fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: You want them to be tender, but not mushy. Cook them just until they're tender-crisp.
  • Season the soup to taste: Start with a small amount of salt and pepper, and then add more to taste. Be careful not to over-season the soup, as you can always add more but it's difficult to take it out.
  • Let the soup simmer for a while: This will help the flavors to meld and develop. Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes, or up to an hour.
  • Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for corn chowder include bacon, cheese, sour cream, and green onions.

Conclusion:

Corn chowder is a delicious and hearty soup that's perfect for a cold day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a corn chowder that will impress your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a comforting and satisfying soup, give corn chowder a try.
