Vermont Corn Chowder Recipes

Steps:

• Cook the diced salt pork over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, so that all of the pork pieces become brown but not too dry.
• Remove them from the pan with a slotted spoon.
• Saute the onion in the pork fat just until tender, but not brown.
• Add the water, corn, potatoes and salt, cooking, uncovered, until the potatoes are almost soft.
• Add the milk and simmer very gently for 10 to 15 minutes to let the flavor ripen.
• Taste for seasoning, adding a good bit of freshly ground pepper.
• Sprinkle the surface with the salt pork and serve with a large supply of soda crackers.

Steps:

• Heat the butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, and thyme and cook until the vegetables are good and soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Dust the vegetables with flour and stir to coat everything well. Pour in the vegetable stock and bring to a boil. Add the cream and the potatoes, bring to a boil and boil hard for about 7 minutes, until the potatoes break down (this will help to thicken the soup and give it a good texture).
• Cut the corn kernels off the cob and add to the soup. Season with salt and pepper and simmer until the corn is soft, about 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the parsley and give it another little drink of olive oil. Ladle the soup into bowls and serve.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Saute green bell pepper and onion until tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in milk, potato soup, and Worcestershire sauce. Let soup simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add venison; cook and stir until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Add venison to the soup; stir in corn. Season with pepper. Simmer until flavors meld, at least 15 minutes. Stir in cheese until melted.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a Dutch oven over low heat.
• Increase heat to medium, add onion and celery, and cook until tender, 5-7 minutes.
• Add salt, pepper, and paprika and stir with a wooden spoon.
• Add potatoes, milk, and corn and stir until soup is heated through.
• Remove Dutch oven from heat and stir in cheese until melted.
• If necessary, place soup over low heat and cook, stirring until all of cheese is melted; do not boil.
• Ladle soup into bowls and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
• Store leftover soup in a covered container in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Remove corn kernels from cobs and place in a bowl. Scrape 'milk' from cobs into bowl with the kernels. Reserve 1 cob.
• Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add onion, scallions, and garlic; cook until soft but not brown, about 3 minutes. Add corn kernels, corn milk, potatoes, and jalapeno. Cook, stirring frequently, for 10 minutes. Add milk, broth, and reserved cob. Simmer until potatoes are completely soft and soup is slightly thick, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove and discard cob.
• Season chowder with cilantro and pepper and serve.
