Corn Chowder

 

 

1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 large onion, chopped
3/4 cup diced celery
2 1/2 cups chicken broth
2 cups peeled, cubed 1/2 " boiling potatoes
3 cups frozen corn
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
dash white pepper
3 tablespoons flour
1 quart half and half

 

Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and
celery and saute 5 minutes until soft but not brown.

Add chicken broth, potatoes, corn sugar, salt and pepper.
Cover and simmer until potatoes are barely tender, about 30 minutes.

Whisk flour into 1 cup half and half. Stir into soup. Add remaining half and half and simmer until soup has thickened to creamy consistency, about 15 minutes. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper if needed. If too thick, add
a little milk; if too thin, simmer 5 to 10 minutes more
