Chowder is a classic comfort food here in the Northeast, especially during cooler weather. Whenever I make a trip home to Pittsburgh, Mom has this simmering on the stove for me.

Ingredients

1 large onion, chopped
1/2 cup butter
2-1/2 cups water
2 cans (14-3/4 ounces each) cream-style corn
4 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 cups milk
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
Minced fresh parsley

Directions

1. In a Dutch oven, saute onion in butter until tender. Add the water, corn and potatoes; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 16-20 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Reduce heat to low. Stir in the milk, salt and pepper. Cook for 5-10 minutes or until heated through, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle with parsley.
