Into every life, a little corn must fall.

.

Though I live in the land of clam and haddock…. every once in a while I need to break the mold and stretch the chowder boundaries.

So on a cold and windy day?

Shrimp and corn chowder is on the menu.

And this new recipe I found?

Wow.

So thick and creamy you could eat it with a fork.

I’d recommend using medium or small shrimp. I only had jumbo on hand and even cutting them in half made for more than a mouthful.

Yield: 4 small bowls or three large as pictured.

Not a lot, but trust me this is so rich you can only eat one. As a meal, not an appetizer.

  1. I’m a big fat chowderhead but I can’t do corn. I can barely eat popcorn without a ton of butter and a big box of milk duds. The rest of the recipe sounds good, I’ll just need a good substitute for the corn. Not potatoes, that’s cheating. I’m repressed that you have jumbo shrimp hanging around in case you get a wild idea. We write a menu every week and stick to it. Otherwise things get confusing.

      1. We have emergency dinners for that, or even a real emergency, Stouffer’s lasagna and stuff. If I’m cooking something that freezes well, I’ll double it up. It’s rare that I will ruin a meal but it happens and knowing there’s a good meal on standby definitely reduces the stress.

      1. Grits are kind of rare here too. Though if one is in the right place at the right place at the right time it does happen. And the corn and shrimp sounds good too ! Sea food and chowder what is not to like ? ! ? ! ?
