Corn Chowder Recipe - Creamy Corn Soup
Howdy Folks and welcome to the Hillbilly Kitchen! Today, we're making a creamy corn chowder, also known as corn soup. This recipe is perfect for winter and can be made using frozen or canned corn. The basic ingredients include corn, onion, potatoes, and milk. If you have fresh corn, you can cut them off the cob and use the corn cobs to make a vegetable stock. Feel free to add chicken stock or additional vegetables for flavor.
Start by sautéing onions, potatoes, and other vegetables in butter. Once tender, add water to barely cover the vegetables and simmer until they're cooked. Then, add milk to make the soup creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve the corn chowder hot with toppings like cheese, sour cream, or bacon. It pairs well with bread, rolls, or cornbread.
