Ingredients: 6 ears of corn (or 4 cups frozen kernels); 4 medium potatoes, diced; 1 large onion, diced; 4 stalks celery, diced; 3 cloves garlic, minced; 4 tbsp butter; 1/4 cup plain flour; 4 cups vegetable stock; 1 cup cream; 1 cup whole milk; fresh chives and hot sauce to serve; salt and pepper to taste

A thick, sweet American corn chowder with potato and a touch of cream. Scraping the corn cobs after cutting off the kernels releases their milky liquid into the pot, adding a layer of sweet corn flavour a lesser chowder would miss.
