I had never made corn chowder before but it seemed a lot like Potatos soup/stew so I thought I'd try it. It turned out beautifully. I used our own corn that we froze (off the cob) in the fall and made the cream corn. This added a ton of flavor. Cream corn is easy to make, it just takes extra time. Didnt really make any other changes. I doubled the recipe. It was a huge hit at the potluck, many asked for the recipe.

The recipe how it's given is great, it's definately a good corn chowder recipe. I'm sure many add cream instead of milk, which may make it heartier, but as is, it's still good! Thanks for the recipe

My husband made this today instead of the normal one we usually make. With no bacon my nose said they could not be good. Both my picky daughter and myself loved this and with the fat cut who could not be happy?

Excellent!! I did alter the recipe slightly. I used just one quarter cup of butter and rather than water I used chicken broth. Most definitely a keeper!

This is a great start, but I did doctor it up. I used 1 can cream-style corn+a small bag of frozen corn. I've used vegetable broth instead of the water before but didn't have any tonight, so I used the water and a 1/2 packet of KNOR vegetable soup mix (if you use the soup mix, you don't need to add salt). And instead of all milk, I use 1/2 milk and 1/2 half & half, and just a little bit of whipping cream. And definitely add a little cornstarch to thicken it up. Super yummy!

Can never leave well enough alone. I use 1 can creamed corn and 1 can whole kernal corn. Also use instant potato flakes to make a thicker chowder. To make larger servings or have more eaters to enjoy this chowder add more corn & more potato. Makes a great first course or main course dish

Loved how easy it was, but it didn't have that wow factor. My husband thought it needed to be a bit thicker. I also think maybe adding ham would make it more interesting.

This is great although I prefer a thicker soup and used corn starch to thicken, also substituted skim milk and 1 can whole kernel corn and 1 garlic clove crushed. Everyone in my house loved it and want it served regularly
