Delicious! We didn't have enough corn, but even so it was deliciously corn-y. We left out the sage as we didn't have any on hand, but we didn't miss it. We also left off the chives. The leftovers heated well, too. Overall, it was a warm, rich, fairly sweet (due to all the corn) soup. Thanks, jovigirl!

Made this just like the recipe except for subbing low sodium chicken broth and leaving out the extra salt because I cook low-sodium. Made the full recipe even though there are just 2 of us. We are "souppies" so nothing went to waste! This was really good and I will make it again! Don't leave out the sherry as it adds a subtle richness to this simple, delicately flavored chowder!
