Chicken, Corn, Bacon, Potato Soup

chicken, corn, bacon, potato soup

It’s still chilly. Still time to enjoy a hearty soup that warms the tummy and the soul. Mind you, this soup would be great anytime!

I have few soup recipes that use corn, yet I love corn and corn in soups. And there’s bacon! What’s not to like?

Corn and Bacon Pasta

Need comfort food during COVID-19? Last year I broadened my interest from corn on the cob, to corn “off the cob” - as in cutting kernels off fresh corn cobs. Mind you, frozen corn is terrific - making this a year-round comfort food! And then there’s BACON. And cream! Enough said!

This is meant to be eaten warm, though it’s still good at room temperature.

Miso Honey Butter Corn

I had discovered the wonders of miso and now was on the lookout for how else to use it.

I’ve lost count of how often I have made this addictive recipe - even with frozen corn now that the corn harvest has ended. If you have all the ingredients on hand, you can pull this together quickly as a side or a snack.

Great warm or at room temperature.

Scallop and Corn Chowder

Who doesn't wish for "restaurant-worthy" recipes for a dinner party - a "show-stopper", as they say.

You can make this in front of guests if you have a kitchen cum theatre. Or (with preparation) you can begin this about a 1/2 hour before serving. 

It serves 4, but can be doubled easily, and there are options for substitutions.

Everyone would wish for seconds, but they need to save room for the rest of your fabulous dinner!

Roasted Edamame Salad

Edamame "are rich in protein, dietary fiber, and micronutrients, particularly folate, manganese, phosphorus and vitamin K" (Source). Combine it with other terrific ingredients and this is a winner! This recipe is directly from Alton Brown - loved his Good Eats show. The recipes were great, explained and demo'd well - often with reference to the underlying food / cooking science. I have make this recipe too often to count., and use it as a side or salad. Great also on a picnic - and so healthy!
