Ingredients for Amish Snow Day Soup:
Before you start cooking, gather the following ingredients:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4 cups of fresh or frozen corn kernels
1 onion, diced
3 potatoes, peeled and diced
2 carrots, diced
3 celery stalks, diced
4 cups of chicken or vegetable broth
2 cups of milk
1 cup of heavy cream
1 teaspoon of dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped fresh parsley for garnish<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Directions<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now that you have all the ingredients ready, follow these simple steps to make Amish Snow Day Soup:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In your slow cooker, combine the corn, diced onion, diced potatoes, diced carrots, and diced celery.
Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and stir well to combine.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours, until the vegetables are tender.
After the cooking time, use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup. This will give it a creamy consistency while still leaving some texture.
In a separate saucepan, heat the milk and heavy cream over medium heat until hot but not boiling.
Add the hot milk and cream mixture to the slow cooker and stir well.
Season with dried thyme, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir again to combine all the flavors.
Let the chowder simmer for an additional 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve the Slow Cooker Amish Corn Chowder hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
Food and Cooking Hacks
Here are some food and cooking hacks to elevate your Amish Snow Day Soup:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you prefer a thicker chowder, you can blend a small portion of the cooked vegetables separately and then add it back to the slow cooker.
For an extra kick of flavor, you can add some cooked and crumbled bacon as a topping.
To make the chowder more colorful, consider using a mix of yellow and white corn kernels.
If you\u2019re short on time, you can use canned corn instead of fresh or frozen. Just make sure to drain and rinse it before adding it to the slow cooker.
You are welcome to customize the recipe by adding other vegetables like bell peppers or peas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
