My first pot of corn chowder of the season is simmering on the stove. It is my favorite soup of all time.
I swear, as soon as we get more chairs I'm having a fall soup and sandwich party. Here is the recipe:
5 Cups of water
2ish large onions
2 Celery stalks
1 or 2 small green peppers ('cause they're the cheapest color! But if your rich, I strongly suggest you go for red or yellow)
2 large potatoes, diced, skins on
1 bay leaf
2 tablespoons of flour
2 cups of buttermilk (regular milk or soy milk works fine too)
About 3 cups of whole kernal corn (or 2 cans)
salt 'n peppa
Finely chopped parsely, chives and paprika to garnish
Pour the water in a big soup pot. Add the onions, celery, pepper, carrot, potatoes, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil and then simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.
Dilute the flour in the milk and add it to the soup.
Add the corn and seasonings. Blend and stir the soup cooking for a few minutes over low-medium heat. Remove the bay leaf. Serve the soup, garnishing each bowl with the parsley, chives and paprika.
