CORN CHOWDER

wismiss — Fri, 14 Apr 2023 03:43:26 GMT

Anyone have a tried and true recipe for corn chowder or corn soup using canned or frozen corn and/or canned or frozen cream of corn? Potatoes? No potatoes?

Thanks.

I think I got this recipe here...not sure but, it is good. You could probably omit the chicken.

Chicken, Corn and Potato Soup

1 ((24 oz) container refrigerated mashed potatoes (or

3 cups homemade)

2 cups chicken broth

1 can sweet corn, drained

2 cups shredded chicken

1/2 cup chopped onion

2 Tablespoons butter

3/4 cup whole milk

5 pcs. bacon, cooked and crumbled

1 Tablespoon reserved bacon grease

Shredded cheese for topping

salt and pepper to taste

Cook bacon and reserve grease. In a large pot, melt butter. Add onion and cook 2-3 minutes. Add chicken broth, corn, reserved bacon grease and chicken. Bring to a boil and reduce to simmer. Add milk and potatoes; stir until combined. Continue simmer until heated through. Season with salt and pepper. Top with cooked bacon and cheese, if desired, before serving.

* I used two cooked chicken breasts in this recipe. I used 1% milk and mixed bacon into soup....with some on top...can't remember. I did not add the bacon grease.

Look up the Betty Crocker corn chowder recipe. It uses canned cream corn, bacon, milk and potatoes. It's easy and quite good.

Can of creamed corn, can of potato soup, frozen kernal corn or crispy canned corn kernals, broth and add any of the following: bacon, jalaenos, canned green peppers (mild, medium or hot), sauteed onion and or peppers, cheese on top.

We like a shot of hot sauce or salsa on top as well.

I buy Campbell's chunky Chicken Corn Chowder by the case. Pop open a can, heat in the micro, eat. No fuss. Delicious.

I have used this recipe. It is similar to the previous posted recipes.

Ingredients

For the Corn Stock:

4 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 cups milk
1 cup heavy cream

For the Corn Chowder:

4 cups corn kernels (from 4-5 ears corn), reserve cobs for stock
4 oz (4 slices) bacon, chopped
1 large onion, finely diced (1 1/2 cup)
1 large carrot, cut into 1/4" dice (1 cup)
3 stalks celery, finely diced (1 cup)
1 lb Yukon potatoes, 3 medium, peeled and cut into 1/4" thick pieces
2-3 tsp sea salt, or to taste

1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 Tbsp Chives, chopped, to garnish

Instructions
How to Make Corn Stock:
1. Cut the kernels from the cobs and set kernels aside for making chowder.* Place the bare cobs in a stockpot.
2. Add 4 cups broth, 1 1/2 cups milk, and 1 cup cream to pot. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer un-covered 20 minutes while making the chowder. Use tongs to remove and discard cobs before using corn stock in step 3.
How to Make Corn Chowder:
1. Place a 5 Qt dutch oven over medium/high heat. Add chopped bacon and cook stirring occasionally until browned. Remove bacon bits with a slotted spoon and set aside.
2. In the same pot, add chopped onion, celery and carrot to the bacon fat and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft (7-8 min).
3. Add sliced potatoes, 4 cups corn kernels, 2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper. Pour corn stock into the pot, bring to a light boil then simmer uncovered 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste
  
  PS - I used canned corn. So I skipped cooking the cobs

My recipe is amost identical to yours! I think the Country Style Gravy makes all the difference in Corn Chowder. I never thought of adding Velveeta at the end, but I do add bacon

Thank you. I'm making soup and salad for a crowd on Tuesday and I plan to use this recipe.

@drizzellla

I made your corn chowder recipe for company last night and it was a HUGE hit! Honestly one of the most delicous soups I've ever had. I followed the recipe, but I did not make the corn stock - I used chicken stock from a box and added cream at the end of cooking.

Thank you for a fabulous recipe!

So glad it worked out for you and your guests.

That is exactly what I did.

Since I made it about a month ago, I knew I wouldn't be able to get fresh corn on the cob. So I used canned corn. And I also just used chicken stock since I wasn't able to make the corn stock.

I also thought that I would add the cream at the very end. I didn't know if cooking cream for a longer period of time would affect the cream and make it separate or get weird.

I found the recipe when I was looking for recipes that called for heavy cream. My son needed heavy cream for a dish he was making for a dinner with friends. And my husband came home with a quart of heavy cream. All my son needed was 1/4 cup. So I wanted to at least use more of the heavy cream before I threw it out.

Thanks for letting me know that it worked out well for you.

I made this recipe from the Betty Crocker website recently and we loved it. It's quick and easy, and it's a little spicy with a Southwestern flair.

Creamy Southwestern Corn Chowder

Bettycrocker.com

Serves 2-3

2 Tablespoons butter

1/2 cup chopped onion

1/4 cup flour

1-3/4 cups chicken broth (*I used 1 can Swanson’s Natural Goodness Chicken Broth)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon coarse ground pepper

1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (*or less)

1/2 cup Half & Half

1 can Southwester Style Corn (11 oz.)

2 Tablespoons chopped fresh chives, or a few dashes dried chives

For serving:

Fried or baked tortilla strips (fresh made or bought) for garnishing bowls of soup

In a 2 or 3 quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion; cook 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Stir in flour until well blended. Gradually stir in broth. Stir in salt, black pepper and cayenne; heat to boiling. Reduce heat; cook, stirring frequently, until thickened.

Stir in half and half, corn and chives. Cook until thoroughly heated. Taste for salt, and add a bit more if needed. Serve sprinkled with tortilla strips.

Notes:

*I used 1 can Del Monte Southwest Corn with Poblanos and Red Peppers, undrained (15.25 oz). Since it contains poblano peppers, it's already a little spicy. So I cut back a bit on the cayenne pepper in the recipe.

I think it depends on which brand//type of corn you use, how much pepper and cayenne you would want to add. Green Giant makes canned Mexican corn (11 oz.) that has green and red bell peppers added but no spices.

This thread made me really hungry for Corn Chowder, but I can't eat corn....too much fiber! What to do??

I used cooked mashed potatoes and milk for my base.

Took a can of creamed corn and drain, and smashed it through a small colander and......CORN!

Combined the 2, added some milk and WaHoo!

Corn Potato chowder

Added some crisp bacon and some fresh mushrooms I sauted in butter yesterday and..oh, so yummy!

Will definitely make again!

I love a good corn chowder. I was searching for a place for DH and I to go out to dinner tonight and I found a new place we haven't been to that serves corn and crab chowder. Reading this post put me in the mood for some so we have reservations for tonight. I'll let you know if the corn and crab chowder was any good.

Re: CORN CHOWDER

AuntG — Sat, 29 Apr 2023 14:00:24 GMT

I'd never buy the canned stuff when it's fairly easy to make any of the recipes provided in this thread. We'll finish up some split pea soup for our lunch today.

Re: CORN CHOWDER

ninjawife — Sat, 29 Apr 2023 23:29:44 GMT

Well the corn and crab chowder wasn't what I was craving. It had some of the compoents mentioned the recipes posted here- bacon, potatoes but it was spicy and not creamy as I was hoping. Oh well DH promised to make me some.

Re: CORN CHOWDER

wismiss — Sun, 21 May 2023 08:04:40 GMT

Thank you so much for all the posts. I made drizella's recipe and it was fabulous. I'll try a couple of the other recipes maybe in the fall when it's not quite so hot.

Again, thank you.
