Fresh Corn & Potato Chowder
This corn chowder recipe was one of my favorites as a child in upstate New York, and I still love it today. For extra depth, place the spent cob in the soup, simmer, then remove. —Tracy Bivins, Knob Noster, Missouri

My family loved this! Great, versatile recipe. I mixed cream and half and half, used brown potatoes instead of red (didn't want to run to the store just for cream and potatoes). Husband and my kids asked for it again right away.
Great versatile recipe! I used some half&half and some whole milk. Instead of mixing the flour with cream, I made a roux. Just because I ran out of cream. Added some carrots. I think it's a highly adaptable recipe. Will definitely make again.
Easy recipe. I have fresh corn, potatoes, and onion from our local farm. Making it now. Added a cob while simmering.
This is a yummy soup. I used low sodium everything and would have needed to add salt, except I added Polish’s Sausage and that made this soup
Made it as is and really liked it. Mine does not look like the picture with the recipe. Mine was much creamier.
just made this afternoon, although the temp outside is 109. I just had a bowl and it is wonderful. The only thing I changed was to fry a couple of slices of bacon chopped up very fine instead of using butter. Everything else is pretty much followed the recipe, and it was outstanding. Made this for a friend who's got some dental issues, because it's soft and I figured if the corn was too chewy I'd throw in my hand blender so she could mush it up a little more if she needed to. Great
Creamy and delicious! I used canned no-salt added corn (didn't have fresh), and it turned out great. I did have to use corn starch instead of flour to thicken it, but that's a minor change. I'll be making this again! Thanks!
Turned out great!
This soup is so simple and so delicious. It tasted even better warmed up the next day. I made a second batch to share with coworkers - everyone loved it and asked for the recipe.
