I have to admit that I was expecting this chowder to be little tasteless and just blah...but I was wrong! This dish is creamy, thick and has just enough seasoning to compliment, not cover up the corn flavor. I did alter the recipe by removing half the potato/carrot mixture after boiling to puree it in my blender, then returned it to the pot. I think this helped increase the creaminess. Thanks Shelbyrose!!!

OMG! This is such a good recipe. I made a slightly bigger batch: more potatoes, onion, carrots and corn. I added a chopped red bellpepper (because it was there). I also added some diced grilled chicken that I had leftover. The chicken was nice, but the soup definitely did not need it. It's definitely the fresh grated parmesan that makes it deliciously naughty... Thanks so much for sharing, shelbyrose!
