Corn and Potato Chowder

What’s the difference in chowder, bisque, and soup?

Bisques and chowders are two types of thick soup. Bisque is generally smooth while chowder is chunky. Both have a long history with seafood. The word chowder comes from the French word for the cauldron in which fishermen made their stew. However, both words are used often used to describe non-seafood dishes as well.

Customarily, chowder included onion, potatoes, and cream. Nowadays, not all chowders contain these ingredients. As different chowder recipes develop across the country, people expect a chunky hearty soup. Therefore, whether it’s corn chowder or seafood chowder, it will not be a smooth puree and it will not be thin and wimpy.

This deliciously creamy Corn and Potato Chowder is filled with diced potatoes, crispy bacon, and a sprinkle of green onion. It's comforting and coziness in a bowl!

Corn and Potato Chowder

My Corn and Potato Chowder recipe is luscious, hearty, and filling soup that’s perfect for cold weather. It’s full of smokey bacon, corn, and potatoes. wrapped in a silky cream sauce. It’s soul-satisfying comfort food at its best!

Additionally, it’s easy to make in just over 30 minutes. It’s easy to throw together for those busy weeknights, but a few extra touches like serving it in a bread bowl can dress this Corn and Potato Chowder up for entertaining. Garnish with green onions, bacon, and more cheese.

 
Hmmm, the bacon, salt, and pepper were late for the photo shoot!
Cook bacon then saute’ onions in the bacon grease, adding a little butter if necessary
dice potatoes small and boil in another large pot
Remove the onions and add flour; cook 2 to 3 minutes
Add chicken broth to flour and whisk. Bring to boil and add potatoes, corn,
half and half, then salt and pepper to taste

    Paula,
    Nothing better in my book than potato and corn in a chowder. My hubby, who is not a potato fan (crazy man) complains when I add it to every soup or chowder I make, lol. Thanks so much for linking up to Creative Thursday. Can’t wait to see what you share this week! Have a wonderful week.
