Cook this recipe
- vegetable stock-4 cups
- yellow onion-1 medium onion
- celery-2 stalks
- garlic-2 cloves
- frozen corn kernels-4 cups
- whole milk-2 cups
- Yukon gold potatoes-1 1/2 pounds
- unsalted butter-3 tablespoons
- all-purpose flour-3 tablespoons
- dried thyme-1 teaspoon
- kosher salt-1 teaspoon
- black pepper-1/2 teaspoon
Dice the onion and potatoes, chop the celery, mince the garlic, and thaw the corn kernels before cooking.
Use a stable cutting board and keep fingers tucked while chopping vegetables.
In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat, then add the onion and celery and cook for 5 minutes, until softened and fragrant.
Stir in the garlic, dried thyme, and flour, then cook for 1 minute while stirring constantly to make a light, smooth base.
Slowly add the vegetable stock while stirring, then add the potatoes, salt, and black pepper; scrape the bottom of the pot and bring to a gentle simmer.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
Stir in the corn kernels and whole milk, then simmer gently for 5 to 7 minutes without boiling.
Stir carefully after adding milk and keep the chowder at a gentle simmer to prevent splattering.
Use a potato masher to lightly mash part of the chowder in the pot, leaving plenty of whole corn kernels and potato pieces for texture.
Mash gently to avoid splashing hot chowder.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed, then serve hot and creamy.
