Corn Chowder Ingredients
  • Oil, canola 2 Tbsp
  • Butter 1 Tbsp
  • Onion, brown 1 medium
  • Garlic 3 cloves or
2 cubes Dorot
 
  • WW Pastry Flour 3 Tbsp
  • Water 4 cups
  • Potato, red 1 lb., 3 medium

    Reverse Columns

Directions:

  1. Cut the unpeeled potatoes into ½" cubes. Dice the onions. Shred the cheese.
  2. In a large Dutch oven, heat up 2 Tbsp of oil and add in the diced onion and thyme. Sauté the onions about 5 minutes until they are translucent (medium 4).
  3. Add in 1 Tbsp butter, the minced garlic and flour. Sauté another minute or two. If using Dorot frozen garlic cubes instead, add them to the broth in the next step.
  4. Gradually pour in the water while stirring constantly. Turn up the heat and bring to a boil and it will thicken.
  5. Add in the potatoes, salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to a simmer (3) for 20 minutes.
  6. Add in the corn in the last 10 minutes.
  7. When done, off heat stir in the shredded cheddar until it is melted. Add in the warmed milk.

Notes:
Serve with Artisan bread.

For a little extra corn flavor, add in some pureed corn while the chowder is simmering. Take 3/4 cup of frozen corn, place in a small dish, microwave 45 sec to thaw, blend in a blender with 1/2 cup water until smooth.
