I love soup!!
Corn Chowder
3-5 strips of bacon
1/2 large yellow onion, chopped
8-10 baby carrots carrot, chopped
1 Large Russet diced small peeled or not
4 celery stalk, chopped use 2 light green from the middle
2 tsp of OLD BAY seasoning
1 box of chicken or veggie broth
2 Cups of sweet corn, kernels
2 bay leaf
1 cup Heavy Cream
Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper
1 teaspoon thyme
Cut bacon in strips toss in a large stockpot and crisp the bacon. Remove bacon once cooked and add the onion sauté until soft. Next add the carrot, potato, celery, Old Bay, thyme and salt. Cook for 4 or 5 more minutes, sweating all veggies. This will bring out the flavor and make your house smell amazing!
Pour the whole box of stock over all veggies and bring to a boil, add bay leaf reduce heat and simmer until the liquid reduces to the top of the veggies (apx 15 min).
Next add sweet corn, cooked bacon, fresh ground pepper to taste, heavy cream and bring to a simmer……..serve with hot buttered sour dough bread or a simple ham sandwich!
Enjoy the cold day with Hot soup,
