Indian Corn Chowder image

I cut this recipe out of the Milwaukee Journal Sentenal many years ago so I don't remember who originally submitted it. I love this tasty, comfort food chowder. It's great on a cold winter day. Or when the corn is fresh off the cob. You can also add cooked ham or chicken if you would like a meaty chowder.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 quart water
7 chicken bouillon cubes
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 cup onion (chopped)
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms (or sliced canned mushrooms)
2 cups frozen corn (or fresh corn in season)
1 cup diced potato
1 cup diced carrot
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup flour
2 cups milk or 2 cups light cream
cooked bacon bits (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Place the water, bouillon cubes, pepper, onion, mushrooms, corn, potatoes and carrots in a large kettle. Bring to a simmer over medium heat: allow to simmer 15 minutes. Drain off the broth and reserve: set the vegetables aside.
  • Melt butter in the kettle. When bubbling add the flour, stirring with a whisk until flour is incorporated. Add the reserved broth slowly, stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth.
