If you liked our Clam Chowder Recipe, you will surely love this delicious Corn and Potato Chowder. It has a real rich delicious flavor and the ingredients are easy to find.
Chowder is a type of thickened soup that is usually eaten with crackers. The thickening agent for this recipe is the potato. When the potato starts to cook, the starch breaks down and gradually mixes with the milk. The combination of ham and corn gives this soup a nice taste, while the milk and cheese provides the rich flavor. During dinner, this dish is best to eat with some saltine crackers. For lunch, I enjoy having Corn and Potato Chowder along with a roast beef sandwich or tuna salad wrap.
