Corn Chowdah Recipe
I have been making this for some time and I don't follow a recipe any more. So am going to try to get this out of head.

Ingredients
  • 4 med potatoes, peeled and diced into bite size pieces
  • 1 onion coarsley chopped ( I generally use 2 I like onions)
  • 1/2 lb of bacon (pre cut before cooking into1/4" to 1/2" pieces) can also use salt pork.
  • 2 cans of sweet corn
  • 1 can of cream corn
  • 2 1/2 cups of milk
  • 1/2 cup evaporated milk
  • 3 tbs of butter
  • salt and pepper to taste. Generally use about 1 tbs of salt and 1 1/2 tbs of pepper. Sorry is a guess I use my palm.

Directions
  1. Place potatoes in a pot with just enough water to cover them and cook until still crisp but almost done. Drain and set aside.
  2. While boiling potatoes place 1/2 lb of bacon (or salt pork) in a skillet and cook until well browned.
  3. When bacon is almost done (5 mins before or so) add coarsely cut onion and sautee while bacon is finishing up. Drain off bacon grease into container ( I save it in a canning jar and use to season my cast iron)
  4. Place potatoes, onion and bacon in medium to large pot. Add milks and corns.
  5. Cook on med to med high heat until warm enough to eat.
  6. Before serving add butter, salt and pepper.

Good post! I've been eating almost the exact recipe since I was a kid!


Great recipe! Love corn chowder!


One of my favorite comfort foods. Glad to see you like to cook like I do. Little of this, little of that. That is what makes it so good. Thanks for the post...now you wouldn't be from the NE by any chance? Just guessing cause of your "chowdah". Happy cooking.
